Scientific paper

The atmospheric compositions of the earth, Mars, and Venus (after differences in CO2 and O2 contents are accounted for) are shown to be similar, with the exception of smaller percentages of water in the Martian and Venusian atmospheres. It is argued that all three planets have arisen from the same cause, presumably some form of accretion/outgassing at the time of formation of the planets; it is suggested that while the water content of Venus has been lost due to high surface temperatures, on Mars the water has formed a silicate-water mixture, which subsequently has been covered by blown dust and became an underground structure. The arguments are consistent with current observations.
