Mars, the red planet definitely looks red when we observe it. Since ancient times it has been observed by humans, and Egyptians called it ‘The Red One’. But the color of mars is not actually red. Sure it looks red to us and the surface too looks red because of various forms of ferric oxide present in martian dust. But if you get a close up view of mars with an orbiter or rover, the red color doesn’t last that long. Once you go only a few millimeters deeper it isn’t red. What might be the reason behind that? Let’s talk about the reason behind that in this video!

Earth is a beautiful planet that we all can agree on. When we look at Earth from space we see a number of diverse colors. The color of our sky is blue and sometimes this blue color is because of the atmosphere that scatters shorter-wavelength blue light preferentially in all directions, giving it its distinctive color.
