Earth-Mars comparison
Mars is similar to Earth in many ways, having many of the same "systems" that characterize our world. Although it lacks an ozone layer, Mars has an atmosphere, a hydrosphere, a cryosphere and a lithosphere (air, water, ice and rock). These systems all interact to produce the Martian environment. This Earth image was acquired by the Galileo orbiter in 1990; the Mars image was acquired by Mars Global Surveyor in 1999.
