If your planet Earth was the same distance from the Sun as Mars is would the surface of your planet be as cold as Mars is?
No. The light from the sun has to travel farther to get to Mars, so it losses more intensity than it would if it were only traveling to Earth. As a result, the sun is dimmer on Mars than it is on Earth.
Why does the sun exert more gravitational force on mars than on earth does?
The gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and distance. Although the sun exerts the same gravitational force on both Earth and Mars due to their masses, this force is stronger on Mars because it is closer to the sun compared to Earth's distance. This makes the gravitational force between the sun and Mars greater than that between the sun and Earth.
Does the earth have more mass than mars?
Yes. Earth is about 6.5 times larger than Mars and has more mass.
Are the people on Mars more advanced than the people on earth?
There are no people on Mars.
How many miles away is mars?
The distance from the Earth to Mars is constantly changing as both planets orbit the Sun in different orbits and at different speeds. As of Jaunary 14, 2014 at about 4:5 PM Pacific time, Mars is about 1.22449 AU, and closing. That's about 113,823,456 miles. But the Earth is catching up, because the Earth is in a closer, faster orbit, and we'll be at our closest point of approach on April 8, 2014. At that time, Mars will be at about 0.62 AU away, which is not especially close as oppositions go.
Is Mars closer to the sun more than Earth?
Earth is closer to the Sun Earth is 92,960,000 miles (149,600,000 km) Sun, Distance to Earth Mars is141,600,000 miles (227,900,000 km) Mars, Distance from Sun

It used to be more like Earth.?
Mars used to be more like Earth.
When mars is closest to the earth what increases on the earth?
When Mars is closest to Earth (opposition), it appears larger and brighter in the night sky. People on Earth can observe more surface details through telescopes. Additionally, communication between Earth and Mars spacecrafts may be clearer and more efficient due to the shorter distance.
How much more sunlight on Mars than on Earth?
Mars receives about half as much sunlight as Earth due to its greater distance from the Sun and its thinner atmosphere, which does not effectively trap heat. This results in colder temperatures and less solar energy available for photosynthesis and other biological processes.
Which planet is older mars or earth?
Jupiter has a longer year (about 4300 Earth days) than Mars (687 Earth days) because it is much further away from the Sun, and so has a longer distance to travel to complete one orbit (and it also goes more slowly as a result of the distance)
What is the distance from of the mars to the sun in AU?
It varies with each planet's position in its orbit. Mars is farther out from the Sun, and orbits more slowly than the Earth does. At the "conjunction", when the two planets are closest together, they are about .5 AU apart. But 8 months later, when Earth has raced ahead and is now on the opposite side of the Sun from Mars, the distance is about 1.5 AU.
Does the earth have more mass than mars?
Yes. Earth is about 6.5 times larger than Mars and has more mass.
How many miles are in between Mars and Earth?
Distance from Earth varies from 36 million miles (nearest planet after Venus) to over 250 million miles
Are asteroids more closer to earth or mars?
Mars, the asteroid belt is in between Mars and Jupiter.
How close can Mars be to earth?
At opposition (Mars is opposite to the Sun), Mars can be between about 55 and 100 million kilometers - depending on where Earth and Mars meet (the orbit of Mars is quite a bit more excentric than Earth's orbit).
