The possessive (Mars' landscape or Mars landscape?)

The special effects that called up the Mars landscape were impressive.

I wonder if the possessive(') should be added in the underlined. (the Mars' landscape)

Preceded by the determiner, 'Mars' can only be the noun form used as an adjective. Determiners and possessives do not appear together.
