Is Earth going to lose it's atmosphere like Mars did?

Do not care. Just booked passage on a transport to a universe called reality

A good part of why Mars lost its atmosphere, at least as far as I know, was that it lost its magnetic fields because its core froze. This may eventually happen to the Earth, but not any time soon, and by that time the sun may have expanded enough to render the process irrelevant. Also, we would not be as cold as Mars even if we had the exact same size and atmosphere, as we are closer to the sun.

Not any time soon. Mars has 10% the mass of earth and 38% of earth's gravity. That is why it has a thinner atmosphere.

Mars lost it's atmosphere because of no of plate tectonics and weathering. Earth contains water and plate tectonics. No, we will not become the next mars.

Yes, in 5 million years.

No, earth has too much gravity to be anything like Mars, ever!

As long as we have a molten core, plate tectonics, volcanic activity and a magnetic field NO.

No, unlike the Martians, humans have telescopes so the atmosphere will be found.

Plus we would need another planet whose residents wish to travel to Earth, revealed in virtual reality simulations.
