Original entry ↗noun
Selected source glosses provide context, not a complete modern definition inventoryThe analogue of the geoid for the planet Mars; the Martian geoid. The gravitational and rotational equipotential surface for Mars. The surface that provides the datum line (the equivalent for sea level) for Mars.
From areo- (“Mars”) + -oid (“like”). From Ancient Greek Ἄρης (Árēs, “Ares”), the Greek God of War, equivalent to the Roman God of War Mars (“Mars”), synonymous use for the Red Planet; and Ancient Greek -ειδής (-eidḗs, “-oid”) suffix. Coined in analogy to geoid, the equivalent for planet Earth.
