Mars is the second planet ever added to Galacticraft. It's surface consists of a brownish-reddish block. Tin, copper, iron and desh can be found on Mars.

Just like the Moon, Mars has no oxygen. The gravity on the planet is 38% and unlike on the moon you do not leave footprints. Its surface has craters, mountains and a special crater which is the entrance for the Mars Dungeon. Meteors may also fall on Mars.

Mars dimension number is -29.

Prerequisites

Currently, Mars can only be reached with the use of a Tier 2 Rocket, as opposed to a Tier 1 Rocket. Thus, trying to fly to mars with a Tier 1 Rocket is impossible.

Day-night cycle

Mars day-night cycle is synchronized with Overworld's, therefore 20min long. 10min daytime and 10min nighttime.

Since the sunrise and sunset of both planets happen at the same time, the best moment to travel to Mars is during the Overworld's dawn (about 1 minute before the sunrise), thus you will have whole daytime to build a base on Mars before the sunset.

During the nighttime, the environment darkens but not as much as the moon's. Living on Mars is much harder than living on the Moon. When planning a trip to Mars try to leave as early in the day as possible so that you have enough time to set up a quick base.

Due to a bug, the sun and stars are visible only in far-view distance. The Overworld is visible though.

Geological Features

The surface of Mars is riddled with craters, tall hills, and deep valleys. The planet's subterrain features include caves like that of the Overworld's, and sludge-flooded caves that are large, circular, and tall rooms underground. They also have Bacterial Sludge and Cavernous Vines, which are poisonous.

Lava is inexistent.

Structures

Mars features only one kind of generated structures: Mars Dungeons.

Mobs

Slimeling

Slimelings are tameable mobs found on Mars. Slimeling Eggs have a chance to spawn on mars surface. They can be red, blue or yellow. They can be renamed and fed to create mini slime Bodyguards. They can breed with one another to create more slimelings and the color of the new slimeling is the color of the parents combined.

Sludgeling

Sludgeling is some kind of macro-bacteria that spawn in swarms in the Bacterial Sludge. They attack any mob, including the players. A Sludgeling swarm takes place when any mob touches or gets close enough to the bacterial sludge.

Boss

The Mars boss is the Evolved Creeper Boss, which can be found in the Mars dungeons. The boss is a three-headed giant Creeper that has an Oxygen Mask and shoots TNTs at the player on sight. The only known way to defeat this boss is by reflecting the TNTs against it.
