Have you ever seen the Red Planet? Set your alarm for 4:30am today and let the Moon be your guide.
Mars will be directly below the Moon in the eastern sky before dawn. Mars may be half of Earth’s size and 162 million miles away, but this planet has the largest volcano/tallest mountain in our solar system (Olympus Mons), the deepest canyon/longest valley (Valles Marineris) that would easily stretch from New York to Southern California, and two moons (Phobos and Deimos) which are captured asteroids.
Plus, it’s the only planet inhabited only by [robot emoji]. Even small planets are mighty! Learn more at NASA's solar system exploration page.
