Yes. Earth receives radiation. The atmosphere acts as a filter. The atmosphere of Mars is thinner than Earth. Mars receives radiation also.


Why does mars get deadly levels of radiation?

Mars receives deadly levels of radiation primarily due to its thin atmosphere and lack of a global magnetic field. Unlike Earth, which has a protective magnetic field and a denser atmosphere that shield against cosmic rays and solar radiation, Mars' atmosphere is only about 1% as thick as Earth's. This allows harmful radiation from the sun and cosmic sources to reach the surface, posing significant risks to potential human explorers and any existing life forms.


Why does Mars get more ultraviolet radiation from the Sun than the Earth does?

Can an amphibian live on Mars?

No it cannot. Not only do amphibians need liquid water (which Mars does not have), they also need food and oxygen. Mars also has a very thin atmosphere and a very weak magnetosphere, which does not block much of the sun's radiation. That radiation would kill anything on the surface. Mars is also very cold.


How will you handle radiation from sun from mars?

It is difficult for humans to be on Mars due to the lack of a magnetic field or thick atmosphere. Humans could explore Mars by shielding themselves, such as with being in a dome or underground, much like the International Space Station being shielded by the radiation.
