My only proof for this is in the opening credits right after the 100 logo smash that happens they show a mountain next to the drop ship this mountain is named Mt sharp this mountain does not exist on earth it is a Martian mountain. So either this entire show took place on Mars or they just made up a mountain to throw us off even more. And before you try and correct me on this if we terraformed Mars and made it be similar to earth who is to say the didn't build a second Lincoln Memorial on Mars in the dc like area. Another thing that makes me think it is more likely to be Mars comes from this memorial the few times we see it although still to scale in size it is remarkably undamaged considering a nuclear war took place meaning it could have been built out of far stronger materials than the materials of its true Earth counterpart the only real damage we see looks like it comes from normal erosion. Honestly, I know this theory is a stretch but when you have a Mountain that is shown and labeled the same as a mountain on another planet it gets me thinking. They may be the worst theory I have heard in a long long time. If we were to colonise and terraform Mars, it would not be "in the near future". It would take at least 100,000 years. Why would the human race spend 100,000 years terraforming Mars just to make it look post-apocalyptic and have it go through two nuclear apocalypses? It is absolutely ridiculous. And also, the characters call the planet "Earth" constantly. Why would Mars be renamed to the same as Earth after 100,000 years?
