Ancient civilizations such as the Babylonians, Egyptians, and Greeks were among the first to observe Mars in the night sky. Over time, astronomers such as Galileo Galilei, Johannes Kepler, and Giovanni Cassini made significant observations of Mars, including its rotation period and surface features. Today, various space missions, such as NASA's Mars rovers and orbiters, continue to study and observe the planet in great detail.

What is the number observed moons in Mars?
Mars has two moons: Phobos and Deimos.
Why was Kepler not satisfied with the circle he calculated to fit most of the observed locations of mars?
Kepler was not satisfied with the circle as he found that it did not accurately fit all the observed locations of Mars. He later discovered that Mars's orbit was actually elliptical, not circular, leading to his formulation of the laws of planetary motion.
Who discovered the ice cap on the planet mars?
The ice cap on Mars was discovered by Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli in the 19th century. He observed the ice cap through his telescope in 1877, and his discovery provided important insights into the polar regions of Mars.

Kepler was not satisfied with the circle as he found that it did not accurately fit all the observed locations of Mars. He later discovered that Mars's orbit was actually elliptical, not circular, leading to his formulation of the laws of planetary motion.
Are there any supervolcanoes on mars?
At present there is no observed volcanic activity of Mars. The super volcano of Olympus Mon on Mars is thought to be inactive, dating its past eruption from several to 15+ million years ago.
Was an eruption ever been observed on another planet?
Not on another planet per se. Venus and Mars have volcanoes, but none have been observed to erupt. Volcanic eruptions have been observed on Io, one of the moons of Jupiter.
