The atmosphere on Mars is a hundred times thinner than that of Earth.
NASA's Mars Curiosity Rover has measured summer temperatures as high as 70 Fahrenheit or 20 Centigrade at the Red Planet's equator, but as soon as the sun sets, the temperature can plummet to -100 F and -175F is not usual in the winter months at the fourth planet's pole.
Today's daytime high at Mars' Gale Crater as recorded by NASA's curiosity Rover, was 17.6 degrees F or about the reading on the thermometer outside the window in Fort Lee, NJ .
Two days ago Mount Washington hit -100 with the wind chill and Old Agiocochook came close to beating the lowest natural temperature of −128.6 °F at the Soviet Vostok Station in Antarctica on July 21, 1983.
There is no wind chill on Mars.
Just life-threatening cold.
Same as on Agiocochook, but people live there.
Weather men, because Mount Washington breeds weather.
A lot of it.
One day we will be on Mars.
Dogs too.
Like there are dogs on Mount Washington.
