Nobody knows for sure. The red colour is only a couple of millimeters thick and is composed mostly of iron oxides. These oxides appear to have become airborne and settled as a fine coating.
Scientists think that these oxides came from volcanoes which erupted in the past and wind erosion has created the dust.
No. Iron oxide (rust) gives Mars it's red color.
Mars.
Mars is known as the red planet. This is because the iron in the soil gives it a red color. Mars is thought to have once had lakes and oceans.
red The Martian soil appears red in every part of Mars, and we can see Mars as a red point of light when we look up in the night sky. Mars has red soil because the soil contains iron oxide, and the iron has rusted. This may signify that there might once have been water on Mars, because iron minerals need water to rust.
The red color comes from various oxides of iron (hematite mostly) in very, very fine particles, and trace amounts of other elements including titanium, chlorine and sulfurscientists think mars once had water, and mars's surface has a lot of iron in it, so they react together and make rust, which is redish brown in color.:)
Mars is the color of Red!!!
Mars is the red color of rust.
the name mars came from its color red. sometimes the word mars can be used as the color red in a different language.
No. Iron oxide (rust) gives Mars it's red color.

Its the hot red dust already on Mars which is blown in the atmosphere
Mars (A.K.A. The Red Planet).Mars, "the red planet."
No, Mars gets its red color from iron oxide, or rust, that is present in its soil and rocks. Carbon dioxide is a minor component of Mars' atmosphere and does not contribute significantly to its red color.
The iron in the soil on Mars gives the planet its red color.
Mars is known as the red planet, so my guess is Red ☼
