The Planet Mars But Mars is a cold planet now; the average recorded temperature on Mars is -63° C (-81° F) with a maximum temperature of 20° C (68° F) and a minimum of -140° C (-220° F).The first spacecraft to visit Mars was Mariner 4 in 1965. Several others followed including the two Viking landers in 1976.he average pressure on the surface of Mars is only about 7 millibars (less than 1% of Earth’s), but it varies greatly with altitude from almost 9 millibars in the deepest basins to about 1 millibar at the top of Olympus Mons.

Olympus Mons Olympus Mons /ɵˌlɪmpəs ˈmɒnz/ (Latin for Mount Olympus) is a very large shield volcano on the planet Mars. By one measure, it has a height of nearly 25 km (16 mi). Olympus Mons stands almost three times as tall as Mount Everest's height above sea level. It is the youngest of the large volcanoes on Mars, having formed during Mars's Amazonian Period. It is currently the largest volcano discovered in the Solar System and had been known to astronomers since the late 19th century as the albedo feature Nix Olympica (Latin for Olympic Snow). Its mountainous nature was suspected well before space probes confirmed its identity as a mountain.

Size Comparison The giant shield volcanoes on Mars are much larger than any feature on Earth. Shown here is a graphic comparison of Olympus Mons to the two largest mountains on Earth. (Note: Mount Everest is not a volcano.) Olympus Mons is the largest and youngest volcano on Mars. It is nearly 27 km high, and about 700 km across. Its summit is nearly 72 km wide, which is close to the size of Mount Everest and Mauna Kea. Mauna Kea is the largest Earth volcano.

List of tallest mountains in the Solar System Olympus Mons on Mars, the tallest planetary mountain in the Solar System, compared to Mount Everest and Mauna Kea on Earth (both elevations are sea-level-to-peak). This is a list of tallest mountains in the Solar System; in some cases, the tallest peaks of different classes on a world are also listed. At 21.9 km, the enormous shield volcano Olympus Mons on Mars is the tallest mountain on any planet. For 40 years, following its discovery in 1971, it was the tallest mountain known in the Solar System.

Chariot of Fear A Tiny Moon. Phobos is a tiny moon. At only 17 miles in length, it is the larger of Mars' two moons. At a distance of 5826 miles (9380 km) from Mars, Phobos appears as no more than a tiny, bright dot in the Martian sky. It is so close to Mars that it cannot be seen above the horizon from all points on the planet.
