As Jupiter travelled inwards it gently nudged the Asteroid belt essentially switching places with it, and then as Jupiter went further out it encountered an area of icy objects and pushed many of them into the Asteroid belt. The evidence behind this theory is Mars itself,…

Earth, Venus and Mars were subject to differing evolutionary processes in regards to their atmospheres. The current atmospheric composition of each of these planets also differs whereby Earth is dominated by nitrogen and oxygen whilst Venus and Mars are dominated by carbon dioxide (Rasool 1967, p.1466). This essay will examine the differences in the evolution of atmospheric conditions on Earth, Venus and Mars as well as their relative current atmospheric composition. Additionally, this essay…

The last frontier. There are over 125 billion galaxies (Bond). And out of countless of planets, only 1 can hold life? Well, we couldn't tell you if there are any other planets with life out there because we have only explored less than .5 percent of space. This is truly why space is truly the last frontier and will because of NASA’s mediocre funding. The Space Race didn't just prove that the United states can do anything we put our minds too. It also proved that NASA’s job goes way beyond just…

Recent revelations in the news over NASA finding “liquid” water on Mars has gotten many people excited about the possibility of sending humans to live on the planet, without much insight into the actual reasons why that idea is still not currently feasible.

Anglo-Saxon, whereas all the other planets have names from the Roman or Greek gods. Mars formed four and a half billion years ago just like the Earth. The rusty red color of the planet comes from iron oxide. Since it orbits much further from the Sun, the Martian year is twice as long as the Earth’s year. Similar to Earth, it spins on its axis with its day being approximately twenty-four and a half hours long. However, Mars is only half the size of Earth, which translates into much less…
