Yes, Ada is similar to Pascal, and also Modula 3.  In addition, Ada's
object oriented, has multitasking built-in to the language, exception
handling, and many other wonderful features.

If your interested you should look at the AdaHome website at     
http://www.adahome.com/

The Lovelace tutorial will give you a good overview.

Ada was originally sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense as a
standard language to replace the hundreds of different languages that used
to be used.  It is now over 14 years old and an international standard. 
It is used all over the world for many diverse purposes.  (see AdaHome for
a short list)

Good Luck,
