One more random fun fact about Mars (in real-life): Did you know that the planet
Mars is named after the roman God of War? The ancient Greeks, however, called it
'Ares', after their God of War. We cannot help but wonder if future generations
of gamers will eventually rename it 'Kratos'…

textures and graphic features adding, for example, specular maps
