Rotation Period Solar System
339 words
Mars is the fourth furthest away from the sun and
is recognized by its reddish color. Mars is also
very much like the Earth. More than any other

characteristics that make it an Earth-like world
(Grolier, 1992). One thing that is very similar to
Earth is the rotation period. Mars rotation period
is only thirty seven minutes longer than the

years ago. It was late April, headed into the

quantitative understanding of that association.
