Today, over six billion people live on planet. This means that there are very few places on Earth with no people. One place that has very few people is at the bottom of the Earth. In Antarctica, you will not live there all year round.

Because it is so cold, very few plants and animals live there. This means there are no farms and no places to find wild plants and animals to eat. In order for people to live in Antarctica food must be sent there on boats, and this is expensive.

     Another problem is that Antarctica can be dangerous . Many people think it is safe to travel for Antarctica in the summer months when it is warmer However. Antarctica is mostly ice, so when it is summer, the ice melts.When the ice melts, it can break, so people cannot travel around Antarctica during the summer.

Mars has surface features similar to those found on the moon and on Earth. It has ranges, volcanic fields, valleys, ice caps, canyons and deserts. Mars is much smaller thàn the Earth. It has approximately half the radius of Earth. Mars orbits the Sun a little further than Earth. Mars takes 686 days to orbit Sun. In other words, the orbital period of Mars is almost twice as long as Earth's orbital period. Many spacecrafts have attempted to visit Mars, the most notable of which was NASA's Mariner 4, the first to.visit in a fly-by in 1965. In 1976, Viking 1 and 2 became the first spacecrafts to conduct successful and sustained landings on Mars. They provided the first color photographs of the "red planet."
