Question 6:

Mars' axial tilt is _________ degrees.

25.19
Mars' axial tilt is close to Earth's 23.5 degrees. Since Mars takes about twice as long to orbit the Sun, Mars' seasons are then twice as long as Earth's!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What is the gravity of Mars (compared to Earth)?

.379 that of Earth
This means that launching a spaceship from Mars is less demanding than launching one from the Earth.

Mariner 8 fell into the Atlantic Ocean, while its sister spacecraft Mariner 9 exceeded its mission, returning over 7,000 images covering about 80 percent of Mars. Pioneer went to Jupiter and Saturn in the late 70's. Pioneer 10 is headed to Aldebaran, a star in the constellation Taurus some 68 light years away. It will take about 2 million years to get there! Pioneer 10 will take 4 million years to get to a star in the constellation of Aquila!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question 9:
