Mars Tilt. Of all the features of Mars, its axial tilt is most similar to Earth. Marsâ tilt is 25 degrees, just a fraction away from the Earthâs 23.5 degrees. And because of this tilt, Mars has seasons, just like the Earth. Of course, since Mars takes twice as long as Earth to orbit the Sun, the seasons are twice as long.
Martian Temperature and Pressure Profiles. The near-circular orbit shown in the figure is a typical MGS mapping orbit. MGS finally achieved such an orbit on February 19, 1999. The altitude of the mapping orbit ranges from 230 to 274 miles, and the period of the orbit is just under two hours. The latitude of the entry and exit occultations varies over the course of the mission.
