WHAT IF THE PLANET VENUS WAS THE REMAINS OF A COMET COLLISION WITH MARS

The best explanation for the existence of Venus is a comet collision with mars The debris from the collision would have been ejected from the system in the direction of the Sun and then would have followed a highly eccentric orbit around the Sun in the same manner as a short-period comets Some of the mars debris would have rained down on earth. The highly eccentric orbit would have allowed the debris to be captured by the gravitational field of the Earth The result of the collision would be a mass of molten rock orbiting the Sun and the formation of the Moon would be the ejection of the molten rock from the collision what if the comet collision formed the Moon and Venus Leaving mars without an atmosphere and with less mass. The moon may not been the result of a mars sized object colliding with earth. HOW DID THE PLANET MARS BECOME SO LITTLE AND SO DRY? The early planet Mars was much larger than the planet Mars is today The planet Mars had a large atmosphere and water on the surface At some point after the formation of the planet Mars it was struck by a comet The collision caused the planet Mars to be greatly eroded and the planet Mars to lose most of its atmosphere The collision also caused the planet Mars to move from the asteroid belt to its current orbit The planet Mars had a large atmosphere and water Mars has no proven evidence of life. However, discovery of water is non controversial 1.Mars would be the most likely planet to inhabitant in the future. Mars may hold the keys to our future and our past 2. Mars terrain is very similar to the Southern California Mojave Desert. 3. Mars is filled with iron oxidized dust 4. Mar's volcano Olympus Mound rises 15 miles above its surface. 5. The delta 2 rocket transported the spirit to mars. Mars is cold dry and desolate and temperatures drop to a 100 degrees below zero at night. 6. Mars is half the size of earth and is 34 million miles from us. 7. Mars may have been warm enough for water to flow across its surface. Mars has had water in its past 8. As the Mars iron core cooled it could no longer maintain the magnetic field and the solar storms stripped the atmosphere. 9. Tons of ice might be locked below the Mars polar caps. The cap is frozen carbon dioxide. 10. Impacts of asteroids suggest that the impact profile is hitting permafrost. 11. In 1964, Mariner 4, set back pictures of Mars, with only one pass. What it saw was crater like on the moon. The Mariner reveal a dry desert on Mars. Mariner 9, orbited the planet for weeks and make a complete mapping. It discovered the thesaurus bulge. Mariner valley is a rupture in the landscape the width of the US. 12. In 1976, the voyager put a robot to collect soil samples and test for life, no definitive evidence of biology. 13. Discovered in the Antarctica, the ALH84001 was determined to be a rock from Mars. Under an electron microscope, scientist see carbonates. Was the structure a worm or part of a bacteria? Was it biological? Probably not. NASA claims ALH84001 was early evidence of life on Mars. No consensus was established. The major of people though the structures were mineral activity. Could microbial life exist on the polar poles of Mars? No evidence 14. In 2003, The Delta 2 rocket delivered equipment to Mars. The robotic rovers spirit and opportunity are exploring mars. Neither robots have discovered signs of life, but they did find evidence of water. 15. Phoenix will excavate the polar soil. Mars may have internal heat causing water flows.
