Question
41. The Green River Formation of Wyoming is contains rich oil shales. In what geologic environment were these shales deposited?
40. Mars is farther from the sun than the Earth.
39. People (humans from Earth) have walked on the moon.
38. Similar to the Earth, Venus has very few meteor craters.
37. Valles Marineris is roughly 3000 miles long (as long as the US is wide).
36. Mars is roughly the same size as the Earth.
35. Mars is the 'Red Planet' .. the surface rocks are most probably oxidized (rusted).
34.Venus has highlands (similar to continents) and large lowlands (similar to ocean basins, but with no liquid water).
33. These Mars channels have liquid water in them today. (Photo is from the 8th edition Tarbuck and Lutgens textbook, NASA/JPL and National Geographic).
32. The moon has more craters than the Earth because the Moon does not have much of an atmosphere for protections against meteors, nor does the moon have water erosion or plate tectonic recycling.
31. The Lunar Dust on the moon was created by millions of years of meteor impacts.
30. Because Venus has volcanoes and large faults, plate tectonics may have occurred on Venus.
29. Millions of years ago, Mars may have had conditions favorable to life as we know it . liquid water, a thicker, warmer atmosphere with oxygen ..
28. Valles Marineris is the largest shield volcano (if you don't count the MOR) in the Solar System.
27. We have brought back rocks from Venus.
26. Venus' thick atmosphere creates a surface pressure of 90 atmospheres (90 times the weight of the atmosphere on Earth at sea level).
24. Mars' thick atmosphere creates a surface pressure of 90 atmospheres (90 times the weight of the atmosphere on Earth at sea level).
