Asteroids or something else?
Martian Volcanoes or something else?
The official science story goes:
200 meteorites on Earth traced to 5 craters on Mars
and then…
Astronomers have traced the origins of 200 meteorites to five impact craters in two volcanic regions on Mars, known as Tharsis and Elysium.
Meteorites fall to Earth all the time — an estimated 48.5 tons (44,000 kilograms) of meteorite material falls each day, according to NASA — though the majority make it to the surface as tiny unnoticeable particles of dust. Determining their origins can often be difficult, but in the 1980s, scientists became suspicious of a group of meteorites that appeared to have volcanic origins with ages of 1.3 billion years.
This meant that these rocks had to have come from a celestial body with recent (in geological terms) volcanic activity, making Mars a likely candidate. However, proof came when NASA’s Viking landers were able to compare the composition of Mars’ atmosphere with trapped gases found in these rocks.
So did super volcanoes shoot the meteorites toward earth or did the Martians themselves shoot the meteorites toward earth as their planet was dying and they were trying to genesis life on earth. Were they able to turn earth from a planet covered by one giant ocean into a planet with continents?
Or was there already life on earth and there was a major war happening on mars that spread to earth, the water planet as the space aliens needed our water?
I have no idea. I just think it is fun to consider such things. 🙂
