Mars is the first human terraformed planet located in the Sol system.
| “ | A prosperous and populous planet, Mars was the Empire's first successfully terraformed planet. The process was marred by what is today known as the Mars Tragedy when a terraforming disaster killed 4,876 people in 2125. | ” |
History[]
- 2113: Terraforming technology patented.[1]
- Years before 2120: Simulations and tests were run for converting Mars to a habitable planet.[2]
- 2120: Teams of surveyors chart the planet, find best spots for atmospheric processors.[2]
- 2125, probably September 13th, 04:38 EST: All 4876 workers on mars died during the final stages of terraforming. A miscalculation in the atmospheric processors made the atmosphere unstable. Suddenly it could no longer sustain oxygen. No one of the Martian population was wearing their breathing apparatus.[3]
- 2157: Mars is officially classified as an oxygen-sustaining environment. A memorial is built to honor those killed in the Mars Tragedy.[4]

With a radius of only 6.2 kilometers, Deimos' size and lumpy shape bear more a resemblance to an asteroid than a moon.
Phobos

Only 6,000 kilometers away, Phobos orbits Mars so fast that it appears to rise in the west and set in the east twice every Martian day.
