Mainly because it is so much further from the Sun than the Earth is. The temperature from about 20°C down to about -150°C, a range of 170°. But then there is a fairly big range on Earth as well. Our highest temperature is 57°C and lowest, -89°C - a range of 146°.

Why are surface temperatures on mars so low?

Because mars has a thinner atomsphere and greater distance from the sun.


How often does it flood on mars?

There is no liquid water on the surface of Mars. The atmospheric pressure is so low and the temperatures are so cold that any water on the surface would freeze and boil at the same time.


Why are surface temperatures on mars low?

Because of its thinner atmosphere and greater distance from the sun, Mars is a cold planet. The Mars Pathfinder recorded midsummer temperatures ranging from -13c to -77c. The Martian atmosphere, which is composed mostly of carbon dioxide, is very thin. Because the temperature and air pressure in the Martian atmosphere are so low, liquid water cannot persist on Mars' surface.


Why can liquids water not exist on the surface of mars?

Because the atmosphereic pressure is too low.


What is an important effect of Mars' low air pressure?

The low air pressure on Mars makes it difficult for liquid water to exist on the surface, which is essential for sustaining life as we know it. Additionally, the low air pressure and lack of a protective atmosphere mean that Mars is more exposed to harmful radiation from space compared to Earth.

Would water evaporate on the surface of Mars?

Water can evaporate on Mars but at a much slower rate compared to Earth due to the planet's thin atmosphere and low atmospheric pressure. The low temperatures on Mars can also affect the evaporation process.
