Hi Daddy:
Everything is fine here. I amvery excited about my visit to the science museum today. You know, I love science.
There is anexhibition about Mars.
Do you know that a mar is the seventh largest planet in our solar system. Let me tell you more. It is rusty. There is a lot of iron in the soil, and there on mars has made it turnred- just like rusty iron on earth. It is the fourth closest planet to the sun.
Mar´s diameter is 4,200 miles. One of mar´s moons, Phobos, is moving closer and closer to mars. Scientists think thatone day it will crash into mars. It has the highest volcano in the solar system. It is named Olympus moons, and it is 15 miles high, which is three times the height of Mount Everest.
Like earth, thepoles of mars are covered whit ice. The ice becomes thicker in winter. In winter, nighttime temperatures on mars drop to as low as – 191 grades F.
Mar´s thin atmosphere is composed mostly of carbondioxide. A hundred- pound man would weigh 38 pounds on mars.
Well dad, you might be tired by now. Maybe we can go to the museum when you get back.
It closes at 8:30 p.m. every day.
