because mars is a lot smaller than the earth (mars is about the same size as the earth) it is said that the interior of mars has cooled. Therefore convection of the asthenosphere is not possible and continental drift does not occur. We think the earth is headed in the same direction as mars and the earths interior will eventually cool to a solid.
