What else can I help you with?
Did a meteor hit mars?
Yes, millions of the did.
Where is the meteor belt at?
Beetween Mars and Jupiter and outside of Neptune
Is an asteroid a meteor that strikes earth surface?
No. A meteor that gets to the ground is a meteoroid. An Asteroid is an orbiting body between Mars ans Jupiter.
Meteor showers on other planets?
there are no meteor showers on other planets because they are out in space but you can still see them from other planets. There are meteor showers on other planets, but we haven't officially documented any yet. The Mars rovers have detected a few meteor streaks on Mars. Meteor showers are just trails from decaying comets that intersect Earth's orbit, so there would logically be trails that intersect other planet's orbits.
What is responsible for shaping mars surface?
At the early formation period, like Earth, collisions with debris from the solar system formation, as in asteroids and meteoroids caused the initial "shaping" or scarring of the surface. Mars was believed to have an atmosphere and water like Earth for a short period. I believe that period to have lasted only a billion years, during which the surface of Mars was smoothed a little before the atmospheric loss enabled meteor damage once again. Mars does have a very thin atmosphere. The effects of ongoing meteor and wind erosion will change the planet's appearance.
Is there something related to space that starts with M?
Mars, meteor, moon, Milky Way
What effects are caused when meteors hit Mars?
The same as if they hit the Earth, however it must be noted that the gravity on Mars is not so strong as Earth's, plus the air is a lot thinner. So perhaps bigger craters because there is less atmosphere around to burn up the meteor before it turns into a meteorite.
What are the effects of the meteor and comet striking the moon?
major massive destructions
What tested life on Mars?
They've sent mars landers and stuff but no life sorry.however a meteor fell from mars to earth with fossilized bacterium in it, so at least there was life. As for now, I'm thinking that there isn't. (deaphknight1)
What is something hot that starts with m?
•Meteor •Something made of METAL that has been sitting in the sun •Mars? idk
The kind of planet are Mars and Earth?
Mars and Earth are both rocky or "terrestrial" planets. Mars and Earth also belong to the group of inner planets (along with Venus and Mercury). Inner planets are in front of the meteor belt (between Mars and Jupiter), outer planets are behind the meteor belt.
How does Mars effect Earth?
Mars comes relatively close and there is a small effect from the gravitational force between the two planets. About 13 kg of matter from Mars is said to land on Earth each year, which happens from meteor strikes on Mars knocking material up into the air. Some of those particles have enough velocity to escape from Mars, and some of those eventually fall to Earth as meteorites.
