Most of the shielding is done by earths gravity well not its area. If mars had no atmosphere it would look battered like the moon. And most of the material knocked off the moon is either returns to the moon or sucked in by earths gravity in a relatively short time. Some day there may be a witnessed lunar fall. Cheers Steve
