The following video is enough to give every Earthling a tremendous shock. 0
 
The first thing that appears is a stunningly similar topographical map of Mars compared to Earth. The round Mars, like Earth, is still covered with vast oceans, mountains, and deserts on its surface, completely overturning modern Earthlings' understanding of Mars. 0
 
Earthlings have come to know Mars through years of observation and research: Mars is one of the eight planets in the solar system, a planet close to Earth, classified as a terrestrial planet with a diameter about 53% that of Earth. Mars is the planet most similar to Earth, with a tilt of its rotational axis and rotational period similar to those of Earth. 0
 
Mars has diverse terrain just like Earth, featuring mountains, plains, and valleys. It is primarily a desert planet, with sand dunes and gravel scattered across its surface. The northern part of Mars is a low plain filled with lava flows, while the southern part consists of ancient highlands filled with impact craters, separated by a distinct slope. Volcanic terrain intersperses throughout, with numerous valleys distributed across the planet. The polar regions are capped with polar ice composed of dry ice and water ice that waxes and wanes with the seasons, and wind-blown sand dunes are widespread across the entire planet. 0
 
Mars lacks stable bodies of liquid water; its atmosphere is thin and cold, primarily composed of carbon dioxide, with dust suspended in it and frequent dust storms occurring each year. Compared to Earth, geological activity on Mars is less active; most surface features were formed during ancient periods of greater activity, characterized by dense impact craters, volcanoes, and valleys, including Olympus Mons, the tallest volcano in the solar system, and Valles Marineris, the largest canyon. 0
 
Mars has two striking topographical features: one is the obvious difference between the northern and southern hemispheres—the south being ancient and filled with impact craters while the north consists of younger plains; the other is the dry riverbeds—numbering in the thousands—ranging from hundreds to over 1,000 kilometers long and several kilometers to tens of kilometers wide, winding spectacularly. They are mainly concentrated in or near Mars' equatorial region. So far, no signs of life have been discovered on Mars. 0
 
"How could Mars be like this?" Professor Du Yuesheng could hardly believe his eyes, and the subsequent video left him even more astonished. The screen before him displayed a vibrant Mars that was more civilized and developed than modern Earth. 0
 
From an aerial view of Mars, the first thing that catches the eye is a giant face-like structure resembling a human face that gazes mysteriously at the sky while smiling; it has become an iconic structure like the Great Wall on Earth. 0
 
In the video, Maya's narration was incomprehensible to both professors; however, Professor Du Yuesheng could understand the text displayed on the screen. 0
 
He realized that Maya was introducing Mars' oceans, lakes, rivers, mountains, valleys, plains, basins, deserts, and forests. The highest mountain on Mars is Olympus Mons; the largest canyon is Valles Marineris. Notable features include Hellas Basin, Elysium Planitia, Ares Vallis, Red Sea River, Lacina River; forests are found in all directions. The northern part of Mars consists mostly of oceans and also has polar regions divided into northern and southern hemispheres like Earth; however, unlike Earth’s sparsely populated poles, Mars’ poles are areas of highly developed civilization. 0
 
These videos completely subverted Earthlings' imagination. While Earthlings were still in a primitive era, Martians had already achieved advanced civilization. 0
 
 
In the era of Mars before us, the Martians had reached a highly advanced civilization. There were flying vehicles in the sky, on the ground, and at sea, serving as common modes of transportation for Martians, much like cars for modern Earthlings. A dense array of vehicles and aircraft operated in an orderly manner along meticulously planned routes. Combined with underground subways, high-speed trains above ground, fast ships at sea, and submarines underwater, they formed a highly developed transportation network. 0
 
The most distinctive buildings on Mars, aside from the pyramids, were the docking stations for flying vehicles. These massive skyscrapers were designed like honeycombs, where flying vehicles were parked in an orderly fashion and could enter and exit freely under electronic navigation. The level of modernization in shopping malls and stores was beyond imagination; logistics were incredibly advanced. Shopping for Martians could be done anytime and anywhere—at home, on the go, or while relaxing somewhere. As long as they wanted to shop, they could click on the virtual communication circle on their wrist, or use shopping screens at roadside videos, stations, docks, and entertainment venues. In no time at all, logistics robots would deliver their desired products right to their hands. 0
 
Here, robots were widely used, greatly facilitating the daily lives of Martians. Living in a highly modernized lifestyle, Martians radiated happiness and joy. Two professors watched in astonishment. 0
 
The Martian military was even more impressive. With a powerful interstellar fleet and naval fleet, along with super soldiers on land, this army would sweep through Earth effortlessly; their ultra-modern weapons were capable of destroying Earth multiple times over. The screen displayed the Kairo Tribe's army along with various modern weapons. 0
 
Kairuot finally made his appearance. The mystery surrounding the three Mayan Glyphs that had puzzled the two professors was finally unraveled: "Kairuot" was the name of a Martian and also the commander of the Kairo Tribe's army. 0
 
From a general perspective, Martians bore a 90% resemblance to Earthlings. However, Martians tended to be shorter on average, with heads and eyes significantly larger than those of Earthlings. This made them appear somewhat unbalanced to Earthlings, giving off a feeling of being top-heavy. 0
 
Kairuot stood at 1.8 meters tall, considered "tall and handsome" among Martians. His arms and legs clearly showed signs of long-term training and special conditioning, making them thicker than those of ordinary Martians. He had an exceptionally large head with big expressive eyes that conveyed a unique aura of a Martian soldier. In the video, Kairuot donned military attire that showcased his confidence and charm. 0
 
However, this powerful army faced devastation in a war against another Martian faction known as the Fair Tribe; both groups nearly faced extinction due to this conflict, leaving Mars devastated. 0
 
The final scenes of the video depicted Mars ravaged by nuclear explosions. The immense blast evaporated all bodies of water instantaneously; steam was expelled from Mars' atmosphere by shockwaves and dissipated into the sky, causing Mars' atmosphere to thin out. The absence of water led to the disappearance of forests and the extinction of species upon which Martians relied for survival. 0
 
Due to radiation from nuclear explosions causing genetic mutations among Martians and deteriorating living conditions, their lifespans drastically shortened. Living to 300 years became a thing of the past as all aspects of their once highly advanced civilization faded away. They were forced to seek out planets suitable for their survival. The two-hour video took viewers from excitement and exhilaration to deep lows. Finally, a segment featuring Mayan Glyphs appeared: 0
 
"The consequences we endure today are all brought about by war. I hope future generations can be awakened by this message. Remember, war is the source of evil; it drives humanity toward destruction!" 0
