The first systematic investigation of Mars’ polar caps had been undertaken in the 18th century by Giacomo Maraldi, who found that the south polar cap had completely disappeared in late 1719, only to reappear later. William Herschel suggested that this was because it consisted of ice and snow that melted in the southern summer.
At the end of the 18th century, most astronomers thought that the reddish color of Mars was due to its atmosphere. But in 1830, John Herschel suggested that it was the true color of its surface. Camille Flammarion, on the other hand, hypothesized that it was the color of its vegetation.
It was generally believed by astronomers in the mid-19th century that there must be some form of life on Mars, even if it was only plant life, because the planet clearly had an atmosphere and a surface that exhibited seasonal effects. The polar caps were apparently made of ice or snow, and there were dark areas on the surface that may be seas.
