WEATHER STATION ON MARS

Talk about a weather watcher! The Phoenix Mars Lander sends back frequent weather updates from the arctic region of the "Red Planet". You can catch the latest readings by clicking the above image.

Because the Mars Lander is carrying a Canadian weather station, these readings are in Celsius. So the high temperature was -20 fahrenheit, and the low temperature was -117 fahrenheit!
