No, firstly because neither planet really existed at that time (they were barely forming from the disc of debris orbiting the sun - protoplanets) and also Mars has always been right about where it is now, in orbit around the Sun. If Mars had collided with the Earth long ago, there is no force in nature that could have put it into the orbit it now has. But 4 billion years ago, there were probably dozens of other "baby planets" wandering around the solar system, interacting via gravity with each other. Back then , collisions were probably relatively common. Something - probably not quite as big as Mars, but perhaps close - probably DID collide with the proto-Earth, smashing an enormous chunk out of it. The debris from the collision, both from Earth and from that "other planet", then coalesced to form the Moon.

∙ 9y agoNo. Thankfully. However, that does not mean that Earth did not collide at all in the past. When Earth was still an infant, another planet crashed into it, but according to many scientists, it was only a 'glancing' blow. If it had been 'full-on' we would not have come around. Or any life forms for that matter.

First man on Mars?
No human being has ever been anywhere near Mars yet.The only body outside of earth that people have ever landed on is the moon.When Mars is as close to earth as it can ever get, it's almost 150 times fartherfrom us than the moon is.
Has anyone ever been on Mars?
No. The only body outside the earth that humans have ever landed on is the moon. When Mars is as close to Earth as it can ever get, it's about 200 times farther away than the moon is.
Has anyone gone to Mars?
No. The farthest that any human has been from earth is lunar orbit. When Mars is as close to earth as it can get, it's about 200 times farther than that. There is presently no project in progress, no planning, no budget, and no schedule for a manned mission to Mars.
Who walked on Mars?
No human being has ever walked on any astronomical body except the Earth and the moon. At its closest approach to Earth, Mars is roughly 140 times farther from us than the moon is. Man-made robotic hardware has been placed on the surface of Mars, but nothing from Mars has ever been brought back to Earth.
What do you do after you pass mars in potty racers 3?

Will earth crash into mars?
NO.
Did someone from earth stand on Mars?
No one from earth has ever stood on Mars.
Did Bruno Mars ever get in a car crash on December 30th 2012?
No
Will the sun ever crash into the Earth?
No
Can you ever see a crescent Mars?
No, you can't ever see a crescent Mars from Earth. Because Mars is farther from the sun than Earth is, there is no point at which less than half of Mars' illuminated size is facing Earth. In other words Mars will always appear as "full" or "gibbous."
Has a human ever visited Mars?
No human has ever visited Mars. None have ever been further than Earth's moon.
Who is the first scientist reached the planet mars?
No scientists from Earth have ever been to Mars.

How do astronauts bring rock samples back from Mars?
No astronauts have ever been to Mars, and no rock samples have ever been sent to Earth.
Has scientists ever found an asteroid that will crash into Earth in the future?
No.No.No.No.

Have any mars missions ever returned a sample of martian soil to the earth and if so where is it located?
No hardware sent to Mars has ever been returned to Earth, and nothing that's landed on the Martian surface has ever been launched from it.
