Here is a draft postcard from Mars: Dear Mum and Dad, Greetings from Mars! I'm having an amazing time exploring this red planet. The landscape is beautiful yet barren - the ground is covered in rust-colored dust and there are huge mountains and valleys as far as the eye can see. Today I went on a hike up Olympus Mons, the tallest mountain in the solar system. It took all day to reach the summit but the views were breathtaking. I could see for miles in every direction across the rusty terrain. The air is very thin here so I had to wear a special spacesuit. It's also very cold, dropping to around -80 degrees Celsius
