Weird Facts & Fun Trivia - 4 The Egyptians were the first to notice that the stars seem “fixed” and that the sun moves relative to the stars. They also noticed five bight objects in the sky (Mercury, Mars, Venus, Ju- piter, and Saturn) that seemed to move in a similar manner. They called Mars Har Decher - the Red One.
Mars is only half as wide as the Earth and has only about a tenth of its mass.
The Danish astronomer, Tycho Brahe (1546 - 1601) made surprisingly accurate calcula- tions of the position of Mars 200 years before the telescope was invented! In 1576, Brahe set up an observatory in Hven, an island near Copenhagen where he studied the stars for 20 years. Using keen eyesight and large instruments, he cal- culated the position of Mars to within four minutes of arc.
Mars has only two moons, Phobos and Deimos.
The atmospheric composition on Mars is Carbon Dioxide (CO2) - 95.32% ; Nitrogen (N2) - 2.7% - Argon (Ar) - 1.6%; Oxygen (O2) - 0.13%; Carbon Monoxide (CO) - 0.08%
