You are likely referring to the positions of the continents at the start of the video in the Expanding Earth Video topic. As was discussed in that topic, the positions which appear there are at odds with most representations in the expanding Earth theory (e.g., Vogel, Carey).

There is no doubt early Mars had an atmosphere. But you can not have you cake and eat it by saying Mars expansion caused the air to thin. Why are we not seeing the same phenomena on Earth. Atmospheric pressure has not changed in the five hundred
years since it was first measured.

I suggest we are seeing the same phenomenon on Earth. However, it may not be that a short period of 500 years would be able to display the effect. In 'fast expansion' models, major expansion did not start until about 200-250 million years ago, and it may have subsequently occurred in phases. These phases may have been linked to the mass extinction events. At the same time, observed seafloor spreading indicates that some expansion is going on now, so we should be able to see a drop in pressure at some point, if our instruments were sharp enough to pick up this tiny effect. In the long run we expanding Earth (EE) models predict global cooling, due to a thinning atmosphere, rather than global warming.

Your falling sea level argument wont hold water either. In no place on Earth is there evidence of exposed ocean floor. Only shallow sea area, such as central Australia are exposed.

I'm not following you here. What I meant was that the continents were mostly water covered prior to the first major expansion and have been gradually exposed more and more in subsequent expansions. EE does not predict exposed ocean floors.

Tectonic activity never got started on Mars. Olympus Mons and other sites show this without question.

I suggest this idea is not supported by the evidence discussed at the top.
