Default What are the chances??

There is no question that meteorites that hit the moon could blast away
moon rock that will fall into the Earth gravity field.,and be found in
areas much like the Antarctic ice (where there are no rocks. So how
come when we find a meteorite we are told it came from Mars.? Moon
gravity (escape velocity) is less than Mars. Moon is millions of miles
closer. Is it all because it you want to sell a book Mars is a more
interesting object to talk about? Also keep in mind the moon does not
have an atmosphere to slow(friction) objects down. I think
man is possessed with his thoughts about Mars. It is red and that color
stirs up emotions Mars can spell war it you flip the "M" It was a
war semble in the old days. Truth is Mars surface other than its
poles looks very much like the surface of the moon. True it does change
with its dust storms,but its picture is dust and sharp looking rock
always. The change is more dust here or there after each storm. It is a
cold (like the moon) dusty dry surface.,and the first boot imprint(like
Armstrong's) on Mars will have the same look. The only difference will
be Mars dust will be deeper than the dust on the moon. I would
like to see more orbiters,than landers. I would like to know the size of
Mars core?. I would like to know how hot the core is?. I would
like to know why Mars does not have a magnetic field? This can be done
without landing on Mars. At this spacetime landing on Mars is to risky.
It uses up time. It tells us very little,and a well equipped orbiter can
tell us more. Bert
