Illustration concentric circles with the Sun in the center and then Earth and Mars. Caption: In orbit, Mars is about 50 million miles farther away

Mars is actually cold. Mars is about 50 million miles farther away from the Sun than Earth. That means it gets a lot less light and heat to keep it warm. Part of the “Mars in a Minute” series.
