. Mars was imaged in great detail in 2005. New research indicates Earth's core formed under different conditions from those that existed on Mars. One possible explanation for this is the difference in mass between the two planets. With Earth being eight times larger than Mars, the pressure of core-formation could be higher. Different silicate phases also may have been involved. NASA/JPL/USGS
