If your winter weather seems a bit cold, just imagine what spring at Mars' north pole is like!
Daytime temps (GROUND, not air!) are on the order of -65 degrees. Nights are colder than -130 degrees.

Well, I must say, I sure like all the planetary shots I've been seeing on APOD lately! Great job as always, petuniasevan!

Do we really want to try and colonize this place? :)

Thanks for the ping, fascinating as always.

That is cold, but it seems it should be colder. Does it not? What is the temp around Mars' equator...do you know??
