 Mars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mars has only a quarter the surface area of the Earth and only one-tenth the mass (though its surface area is approximately equal to that of the Earth's dry land because Mars lacks oceans).
The atmosphere on Mars is 95 percent carbon dioxide, 3 percent nitrogen, 1.6 percent argon, and traces of oxygen and water.
The datum for Mars is defined by the fourth-degree and fourth-order spherical harmonic gravity field, with the zero altitude defined by the 610.5 Pa (6.105 mbar) atmospheric pressure surface (approximately 0.6% of Earth's) at a temperature of 273.16 K. This pressure and temperature correspond to the triple point of water.

 The Planetary Society: Missions to Mars
When Pathfinder arrived at Mars on July 4, 1997, it passed directly through the atmosphere, shed its heat shield, fired its retro-rockets, deployed a set of airbags and then bounced to a stop on the martian surface, all within four minutes of arriving at the Red Planet.
Mars Climate Orbiter was lost on September 23, 1999, when a mathematical conversion error placed the spacecraft too close to Mars at the time of orbital insertion.

 RFC2022   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The MARS database is updated to add the node to any indicated group(s) that it was not already considered a member of, and message processing continues as follows: If a single group was being joined or left: mar$flags.punched is set to 0.
When the MARS returns the actual addresses of group members, the endpoint behaviour described in section 5 results in all groups being supported by meshes of point to multipoint VCs.
Otherwise, the MARS adds the new ATM address to the server map for the specified group, possibly constructing a new server map if this is the first MCS for the group.
