The magnetic field in the close proximity of planet Mars according to data from Mars 2 and Mars 3 spacecraft is discussed. The magnetometers on the spacecraft detected a field whose intensity near the orbital periapses was 7 to 10 times higher than the interplanetary field at the distance of the Martian orbit. The nature of the observed field is described.
