  • low atmospheric pressure. 600 pascals (0.087 psi), compared to Earth's 101.3 kilopascals (14.69 psi)
  • low temperatures around -63' C.
  • the triple point of water is achieved only at the very lowest elevations so liquid water could exist only at certain places.
  • atmosphere is mostly >90% carbon dioxide.
  • no ozone layer to shield from harmful radiation
  • photodecomposition of carbon dioxide gives the atmosphere free O gas molecules (not O2) so not only is the planet barren, it is also antiseptic.
  • very little water (some has been found) so it will be a very precious commodity.
