Mars has a thinner atmosphere than earth but currently it's still able to have storm systems like wind and dust storms. Mars may have had an atmosphere as dense as Earth's at one time. On November 21, 2008, however, researchers announced new evidence that the atmosphere of Mars was and is still being stripped away by the Solar Wind.

∙ 12y agoThe Martian atmosphere is "thin" in density and therefore extends comparatively farther from the planet than Earth's surface atmosphere. The scale height of the Martian atmosphere is about 11 kilometers (6.8 mi), compared to Earth's 7 kilometers (4.3 mi).
But the Martian surface pressure is only 0.7% of Earth's and at its densest point is equivalent to the air pressure 100,000 ft (30 km) above Earth's surface.
