Mars is hotter than 0 ° C

After the successful landing on August 6, the Curiosity robot of the US Space Agency (NASA) began its journey to explore Mars and regularly transfer data to Earth.

Recently, according to AFP, the modern machine measures the temperature in the Gale hole at Mars at 2.85 ° C. Compared to the earth, Mars is farther away from the sun so the average temperature on the planet's surface is quite low, the average is -31 ° C during the day and -89 ° C at night.

Therefore, the temperature of 2.85 ° C measured by Curiosity can be considered very high in Mars. The long-term temperature measurement on Mars has ended since the Viking 1 stopped transmission to Earth in August 1980.

Besides, Curiosity also continued to send many color pictures with high resolution, it can be clearly seen different layers of ocher colors in the hills near Sharp Mountain.
