Mars

   First of all Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun.  It has two moons, Phobos and Deimos.  It was named after the Greek god Mars, meaning Warrior.  Many people think that Mars could support life if it had water, this is false because Mars's atmosphere is made 95.32% of Carbon Dioxide and only .13% Oxygen.  Did you know that the Egyptians named Mars 'Her Descher' meaning the red one.  If Earth equals 1 than Mars's mass compared to Earth is 1.0845 and Mars's orbital period is 686.98.  It has a Carbon Monoxide reading of .07% of it's atmosphere.
