Curiosity has successfully started its exploration mission, and it has given us an understanding of the landform on red Mars based on a large amount of data returned. Today, NASA revealed to USA-Today the current weather conditions on Mars-the weather is quite good, and the photos sent back are quite clear, except that it is a little cold. Manuel De La Torre Curiosity, a NASA scientist, works normally at the temperature of minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit on Mars. At night, the temperature will drop to around minus 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

But don't worry, Curiosity can operate normally at this low temperature, and it is set to "run" happily. These low temperatures will not last long and will not threaten Curiosity. The real danger is that during the transition from winter to spring, the surface of Mars is prone to sandstorms, which will eventually turn into violent storms all over Mars.

In this regard, de la Torre said that Curiosity is equipped with professional instruments, and the collected data such as wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, ground temperature and air pressure will be sent back to NASA in time, and then NASA experts will control Curiosity according to the situation to avoid these natural disasters.
