Could Earth One Day End Up Like Mars? (Find Out)

Definitely Yes ,Every minute, about 400 pounds of hydrogen and almost 7 pounds of helium escape into space from Earth and never return. This is called Atmospheric Escape.

Our planet's atmosphere is held up by gravity. The sun heats the surface of the atmosphere due to solar flares and other activities. Gases become lighter when heated and escape from the Earth by overcoming its gravity.

The water decomposes into hydrogen and oxygen, the hydrogen escapes lighter, the oxygen reddens the soil forming rust.

If this continues to happen, we will see that one day we will run out of atmosphere and water. Without an atmosphere, we will be hit by more meteorites, which is evident from the craters you see on Mars.

Life on Earth will eventually end.
