Mars is one of the eight planets in our solar system. Can you see why it’s often called the Red Planet?

A spacecraft recently snapped this photo of the planet Mars. What does it look like to you? Some people say it resembles, or looks like, a bear’s face. 

Scientists say the face is actually a land formation on Mars’s rocky surface. A large crack forms the circle of the head. The eyes are two craters, or holes. And the snout and mouth are a hill that has started to cave in.
