According to some evolutionists, Mars had an atmosphere that
was thicker than Earth’s
atmosphere. In their view, some 4 million years after the origin of the solar system Mars was already almost complete.
Mars’s
atmosphere may have once been hundreds of times thicker than it is today,
acting as a blanket that protected it from frequent asteroids that ravaged
other planets
At this time, the planets existed in a vast ball of hot
gas and dust that swirled around the young sun, called the solar nebula, which
some planets would have temporarily absorbed into their atmospheres. However,
once the solar nebula receded, it was thought that the planets would quickly
have lost this gas, reducing the densities of their atmospheres.
