Is Mars surface rough or smooth?

The surface of Mars is rough, with many rocky terrains, craters, mountains, and valleys. The landscape is characterized by a mix of rugged terrain and smooth plains.


Which 2 inner planets have the most craters?

Mercury and Mars have the most craters among the inner planets. Their lack of atmospheres allows more impactors to reach the surface, resulting in a higher density of craters compared to Venus and Earth.


What planet has a southern hemisphere covered with craters?

The planet with a southern hemisphere covered with craters is Mars. Its surface features a variety of impact craters, particularly concentrated in the southern hemisphere, which is also characterized by ancient, heavily cratered highlands. This contrasts with the northern hemisphere, which has fewer craters and is more geologically younger and smoother. Mars' craters provide insight into its geological history and the processes that have shaped its surface over billions of years.


What does Mars have on it?

sand and rocks


Are mars craters larger than earth craters?

Yes, erosion occurs much faster on Earth and the meteors partially burn up in our dense atmosphere so they will be smaller. Our atmosphere increases friction causing it to slow down. These effects of the atmosphere, however, do little to mitigate the largest impacts. The main factor is that most of the largest impact craters date to the early solar system when very large impacts were more common. Since that time most of Earth's surface has been recycled or greatly deformed through plate tectonics, which Mars does not have. Most of what hasn't been destroyed by plate tectonics has been eroded.
