Reply to comment by Josephdirte in How much influence does a natural satellite (like the Moon) have on the formation of continents ? by Aubin_kun
Kinda true (slab-pull also has an effect but it sort of needs plate tectonics to already exist to drive plate tectonics) but that's happening in all planets, so what is special about Earth that it developed plate tectonics while Venus or Mars didn't?
