All young people are all very curious about Mars and always wanted to know what this neighboring planet will reveal.

As the planets move around the Sun in orbits, it just happens that in 2003 Mars is very close to the Earth! This is a fantastic occasion to send an unmanned mission to know more about the red planet surface, subsurface, atmosphere, and in particular how much water there is on Mars, and if there ever was life there. To find out ESA is sending to Mars an orbiter called Mars Express and a lander called Beagle 2.
