Also… and I never see anyone else mention this… DOOM does not take place on Mars.
DOOM episode 1: Knee-Deep in the Dead takes place on Phobos. Episode 2: The Shores of Hell takes place on Deimos. Episode 3: Inferno takes place in Hell.
Doom 2: Hell on Earth takes place, as you might think, on Earth.
The whole plot of the first game is that humans are experimenting with teleporters between Phobos and Deimos, when Deimos mysteriously vanishes. To investigate, the player character is sent to Phobos, with the mission to make it through the teleporter to Deimos to see where it is. But upon arriving on Phobos, something is horribly wrong…
Right, forgot about the moons. I managed to confuse new and original doom in my mind. IIRC the humans didn’t even invent the teleporters. They were already there.
I’d hate to be the first human… in the original game there are dead people all over the place and the evil humans you do see are posessed.

The music can be heard all the way from Mars’ moons.
Mars adjacent.
