No, Mars is much smaller than Earth, but both planets have similar amount of dry land. Mars has a diameter of 6,792 kilometers = 4,220 miles at the equator. Earth has a diameter of 12,756.32 kilometers = 7,926 miles at the equator. By size, one typically refers to volume. In this respect Earth is about 6.6 times larger than Mars.

No, Mars is much smaller than Earth, but both planets have similar amount of dry land.

The diameter of Mars is half that of the Earth.

Mars has ten percent of the mass that the earth has.

The whole surface of mars is about equal to the all of the dry land surface of the Earth.

Mars has about one third the gravity of the Earth.

No. The diameter of the Moon is a little more than 25 percent of Earth's diameter, and its mass is only 1.2 percent of Earth's mass.
