We have no money to blow looking for water on this red hot planet (240 degrees F).

From Wikipedia:

Martian surface temperatures vary from lows of about -87 °C (-124F) during the polar winters to highs of up to 20 °C (68F) in summers. The wide range in temperatures is due to the thin atmosphere which cannot store much solar heat, the low atmospheric pressure, and the low thermal inertia of Martian soil.[98] The planet is also 1.52 times as far from the sun as Earth, resulting in just 43 percent of the amount of sunlight.

Sounds wonderful doesn’t it? Let’s all go and lay out on the beach by the sea and drink pink panthers.
