We know more about Mars than any other planet but many mysteries remain. The main question is about life, was there or is there now any life on Mars. Although much of the geology of Mars indicates extensive volcanic activity there is evidence that in the past Mars had water flowing on its surface, but nobody knows whether life developed. The most significant recent surface explorations have been done by two robot rovers called Spirit and Opportunity while the Mars Orbiter has been taking detailed radar images of the planet.

  1. Ckeck this out. Images of Pyramids on Mars and more.
    Apparently covered up my Nasa. The rover has come across the pyramids.

    My understanding is that Mars was up to 7,000 years ago in the same orbit as earth is now and the earth was slightly closer to the sun. There was massive up heavel which resulted in the fall of Atlantis. Time period may vary. Why has there always been myths and translation of Martians and gods from Mars arriving to earth, in ancient scriptures?

    I am open minded. I don’t say it is or it isn’t. Nothing is ever proven.
