Which two planets have ice covering their poles?

What two planets have ice poles?
This depends on what you mean by Ice and Cap. If you want an answer that covers ONLY H2O (water) then only the earth fits that definition. Otherwise ALL non Jovian (Gas Giant) planets in orbits past Earth from the Sun are cold enough to have frozen gas and liquid on their surfaces, even at the poles. And all of them do. Some like Neptune ( and some moons) may be completely covered.
What planets have water ice at their poles?
Earth & Mars for sure, probably all the gas giants, and possibly Mercury & the Moon.

What land masses where covered with ice before the ice age?

How much of the moon's surface is covered with water?
About 0.005% of the moon's surface is covered with water, mainly in the form of ice found in shadowed craters near the poles. This water ice is believed to have been delivered by comets and other celestial bodies over millions of years.
What two inner planets have water in the form of ice?
The two inner planets that have water in the form of ice are Mercury and Mars. Mercury has ice deposits in permanently shadowed craters at its poles, despite its proximity to the sun. Mars, on the other hand, has polar ice caps made of water ice and carbon dioxide ice, as well as subsurface ice detected in various regions.
Do planets have water?
Some do. Earth is the only planet known to have liquid water. Mars has ice at its poles and beneath its surface in some places.
What is another name for ice at the poles?
