Others gave good answers to the foremer question, so I'll handle the
latter. Assuming you meant "Martian networks", they're IP (or other)
addresses that are obviously incorrect given the context. Common
examples are:
- Multicast source address.
- RFC 1918 address in packets received from the Internet.
- Source address allocated to you in packets received from the Internet.
- Destination address neither your own nor multicast in packets received
from the Internet.
- Source or destination address 127.0.0.1 in packets received on any
interface except a loopback.
