Mars is the fourth planet in order of increasing distance from the Sun and the second by increasing mass and size of the eight planets that make up the solar system. It is a terrestrial planet, as are Mercury, Venus and Earth, about ten times less massive than the Earth, but ten times more massive than the Moon. Its topography has similarities with both the Moon through its crater and its impact basins, with the Earth, with original training tectonics and climate such as volcanoes.
