    That is just totally unreasonable.

    sorry man but as you recall the monument was destroyed when we took war of the worlds to their planet as you recall. I think buck rogers got a medal of honor over it, he like went over there and sneezed and everything died.

    The Moon is a 'planet' in its own right.



    But it just happens to be in orbit around the Earth.



    In fact Ganymede and Titan as "moons" are larger than Mercury.



    The moon isn't really that far behind in size to Mercury either.



    So my guess is the Apollo guys did it first.




    Well according to OED the moon is a secondary planet. So I'll stick by my statement.

    Our moon is larger than Pluto as well, though Pluto is and odd one. What do the some of the experts say it is now? A glorified comet from the Kuiper Belt or something.

    The "mighty" winds and the highly granular sands (with perhaps some submerged rocks or ice formations on either side of the "road") of Mars could've easily combined to make something that smooth. Just think of a large sand dune where it meets the beach. Smooth as Charlize's booty.



    Nothing to see here folks (and certainly no Kennedy-sent conspiracy remnants), move along.

    The small crater in the picture could be the result of an obique, angled strike. The result *could* be the smoothing seen in the photo.



    That's just a guess, of course.
