Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Because there is no air to breathe on Mars (there is an atmosphere, but there’s too little oxygen), we need to produce our own. Also, the average temperature is-63 degrees Celsius (-82 F), so we need insulating suits and habitats to protect us from the cold.
Detailed explanation-2: -Size and Distance From an average distance of 142 million miles (228 million kilometers), Mars is 1.5 astronomical units away from the Sun. One astronomical unit (abbreviated as AU), is the distance from the Sun to Earth. From this distance, it takes sunlight 13 minutes to travel from the Sun to Mars.
