MARS
Mars is on a pathway next to a block of flats. The concrete plinth looks like it has taken a whack from a snow plough, and the plant itself looks like it has been hit by a sledgehammer.
I suspect that Mars is not in its correct orbit.
The model of Mars is close to the terminus of the no. 14 bus near Pajamäntie which makes it convenient to begin exploring the solar system from there. It sits atop a grey concrete pillar on the left of the footpath and is easy to miss if you aren't looking for it. From Mars, you can see the model of the Earth as it is only 53m away. The distance between Mars and the Sun is 206m.
Mars is in many respects the planet most like Earth. Its atmosphere is very thin and its sky only rarely has clouds. Mars makes one complete rotation on its axis every 24.6 hours. Mars has two small moons, Phobos and Deimos. Mars' diameter is 6,800km (6.8mm in the model). Its average distance from the Sun is 228 million km, the greatest distance is 249 and the smallest is 207 million km (206m in the model). Mars revolves around the Sun once every 1.9 years.
