But, he adds, the atmosphere itself might have been disturbed or even partially swept away. The explosion, for example, might have blown off some atmospheric helium. It could also account for puzzling conditions on other planets, such as the lack of measurable nitrogen on Mars. Perhaps the most spectacular possibility raised by Gold is that one whole side of Mercury, the closest...
