The Egyptians built enormous towers and used shadows and the sun to tell the time. Later, people used a smaller version of this, called a sundial, but this can’t help on cloudy days or at night. For hundreds of years people marked and burnt candles or they used a water clock or an hourglass, which used sand.

Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. It’s called ‘the red planet’ because iron oxide gives the surface this colour. Mars is a cold, desert world and it has seasons and weather. Scientists want to know if Mars had living thing in the past. They think that in the past there was liquid water on the planet. NASA believes that it will be possible to send astronauts to Mars by 2030. We have to know what dangers there are to find a way to protect the astronauts. This is why there have been robots on Mars for many years.
