	Mars
		The southern hemisphere of Mars is predominantly ancient cratered highlands somewhat similar to the Moon.
		Mars' thin atmosphere produces a greenhouse effect but it is only enough to raise the surface temperature by 5 degrees (K); much less than what we see on Venus and Earth.
		Mars is a difficult but rewarding target for an amateur telescope though only for the three or four months each martian year when it is closest to Earth.

	Barsoom series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1911, Edgar Rice Burroughs, now better known as the creator of the character Tarzan, began his writing career with A Princess of Mars, a rousing tale of pulp adventure on the planet Barsoom or Mars.
		A Princess of Mars was possibly the first fiction of the 20th century to feature a constructed language; although "Barsoomian" was not particularly developed, it did add verisimilitude to the narrative.
		With the Tarzan comic strip a popular success, newspapers began a comic strip adaptation of A Princess of Mars drawn by Edgar Rice Burroughs' son, John Coleman Burroughs.

	"About Mars"
		Because Mars’ axis of rotation is tilted about 25° with respect to the plane of its orbit, it experiences a change of seasons similar to that on Earth.
		Mars’ plates are stationary, however, and a single enormous feature was allowed to develop over time.
		The more we understand of Mars’ dramatic climatic history, and the interdependency of climate and even the most basic of organisms, the better equipped we are to preserve the beautiful blue lifeboat that has been such a generous and nurturing host to us these 4.5 billion years.

		The water which supplies the farms of Mars is collected in immense underground reservoirs at either pole from the melting ice caps, and pumped through long conduits to the various populated centers.
		Instead of flooding the surface of the fields, and thus wasting immense quantities of water by evaporation, the precious liquid is carried underground through a vast network of small pipes directly to the roots of the vegetation.
		From the moment that I had come in contact with the red inhabitants of Mars I had noticed that Woola drew a great amount of unwelcome attention to me, since the huge brute belonged to a species which is never domesticated by the red men.
