Why is Mars not WHITE
Why would the furthest planet from the Sun not be covered in ice and look like a desert? Space Magic? These things confuse me

Lol. Mars isn't the farthest planet from the sun.

You must have skipped a lot of science class huh?

Since when has Mars been the furthest planet from the sun?

21 RepliesWhat do you need to generate ice? Water. Mars does have water, yes. Enough water to cover the entire planet in ice? Uhm, nope. A lot of the water that used to be on Mars dissipated into the vacuum of space when its atmosphere degenerated. Now, we are left with only small remnants of water (comparatively) in the forms of clusters of ice at the poles of the red planet. All that remains on the main surface is a very cold red-sand desert where the markings of water still remain. It's fascinating stuff.

The joke is that we were supposed to have the whole system in destiny and the farthest we get to go is Mars

Mars is not white because it's Red, hence why it's called the "Red Planet" Go and watch the original Total Recall...

You are confusing Mars with Hoth maybe?

Edited by Flywheel: 1/28/2015 12:21:12 PMMars ***is*** the furthest rocky planet, before the first gas giant. Its iron core cooled off and solidified long ago, dropping the planet's magnetic field, and thus exposing it to the full force of the solar wind. That stripped away its atmosphere over a very long time. Hence, no water. There is ice you can see with a telescope, but it's CO2 dry ice at the poles. The red color is just the composition of the remaining rock. This is still only theory, but it's the reason NASA is continually hunting clues that water once existed there. But even comets made mostly from water ice don't appear white. The Rosetta mission surprisingly found its target comet to be very dark in color. I think a better question would be: If the Traveler terraformed Mars, why is it *still* a desert unlike Venus, why does it have Earth's gravity, and how long until this atmosphere bleeds off like the last one?

Where is the #trolololol ?

2 RepliesI always thought It's the thin atmosphere allows more harmful rays through which causes it to be an arid desert? I could be wrong though

not sure if troll

19 RepliesJust so you know, Venus is furthest than Mars, and that has vegetation (well in game anyway).

4 RepliesThe amount of people that received doctorates in astrophysics from Wikipedia commenting in this thread made me laugh.

1 ReplyMy Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nine Planets. In order from the sun out. Using the first letter of the words in this sentence to be the first letter of the planet that's in that position. Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto. OK Pluto might be relegated to planetoid or whatever but it still works.
