Expanding earth possible on mars?

In summary, it is not possible for the earth to expand on Mars. This is because the earth is a solid object and cannot physically expand. The surface area of Mars also cannot increase over time due to expansion, as a planet's size and shape remain constant. The misconception that the earth can expand on Mars is due to the concept of tectonic plates, but this is a different process than expansion. Additionally, there are no scientific theories that support the idea of an expanding earth on Mars, as it is not accepted by the scientific community. We know for sure that the earth cannot expand on Mars through scientific evidence and understanding of planetary processes, as well as the laws of physics not supporting this idea.

In 1889 and 1909 Roberto Mantovani published a hypothesis of Earth expansion and continental drift. He assumed that a closed continent covered the entire surface of a smaller Earth. He believed thermal expansion led to volcanic activity, which broke the big continent into smaller continents. The Curiosity rover from NASA found solid water samples on mars. I'm just wondering if it's possible that Mars might expand someday? Sorry if this might be a stupid question.:bugeye:

No.

I'm sorry, but this can't go anywhere good: nonsense from nonsense. Locked.
