The planet Mars, being much farther from the sun, and having a very thin atmosphere to live on, has a temperature range from about -225 degrees Fahrenheit (at the polar caps), to 81 degrees Fahrenheit. The NASA Viking Lander, which stayed in a stationary spot on Mars, recorded -161 Fahrenheit to 1 degree Fahrenheit. The average temperature is -67 degrees Fahrenheit. Lets say that is our location to live. Obviously, with the lack of oxygen, Mars is already uninhabitable. Antarctica the coldest place on earth, has an average temperate of -58 degrees Fahrenheit, and has been recorded to have had a lowest temperature of 128 degrees Fahrenheit. In Antarctica there are research stations which have people living in them throughout the harsh Antarctic winters, at similar temperatures to Mars. So Humans could survive the temperature on Mars, as long as we were living in some sort of protective building that shelters out the cold. However, without some sort of heated protection, Mars would be too cold to live on.

Neither. It isn't too hot or too cold compared to other planets in the solar system. It's just cold. Scientists are trying to figure out if we can live on it after a few adjustments. It is 80 F on a rare summer day and -200 F on a very rare winter. That is occasionally.
