Editor's Notes
- #6: Yes, Mars does have an atmosphere. The Martian atmospherecontains about 95.3% carbon dioxide (CO2) and 2.7% nitrogen, with the remainder a mixture of other gases. However, it is a very thinatmosphere, roughly 100 times less dense than Earth's atmosphere.
- #7: Olympus Mons (Latin for Mount Olympus) is a large shield volcano on the planet Mars. By one measure, it has a height of nearly 22 km (14 mi).[3]Olympus Mons stands almost three times as tall as Mount Everest's height above sea level. a mountain with a large, circular hole at the top through whichlava (= hot liquid rock) gases, steam, and dust are or have beenforced out: VOLCANO
