Mars was again attacked by the Daleks during their [[Second Dalek War|war]] with humanity in [[2545]], before they were driven off-world in the [[Battle for Mars]]. The 50th anniversary of the battle was recognised in [[2595]], also the 500th anniversary of Earth's [[colonisation of Mars]]. [[Bernice Summerfield]] observed that the battle was only the third [[war]] on Mars in a period of about 500 years, following the 2157 Dalek invasion and the [[Thousand Year War]] from [[2086]] to [[2088]], which she deemed a "pretty good tally" compared to Earth [[history]].
