Mars is Cool!


Hi everyone! It's still raining, and for the next few days too! I wish it would stop soon.
Today I studied about Mars. It has 2 moons Phobos and Deimos. They say that they
are asteroids that have been captured by the Martian gravity. In 50,000 years Phobos
will crash into Mars. We don't care! Phobos means "fear" and Demios means "panic"
in Greek.
There is a mountain, volcano actually, called "Olympus Mons". It is 88,000 feet (27,000 meters)high!
It is the biggest mountain in the solar system! Also there is a canyon so long it can go from California to New York!
Thats all! See Ya!
