Mars rovers. [Here’s a recent article about Curiosity studying the climate of Mars.](https://mars.nasa.gov/news/9281/curiosity-mars-rover-reaches-long-awaited-salty-region/) Curiosity and Perseverance also have weather stations.

Mars *does* have a molten core. [Evidence was found since 2003](https://mars.nasa.gov/news/453/scientists-say-mars-has-a-liquid-iron-core/) and [again by InSight in 2021](https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-00696-7). Liquid core does not automatically equate to an intrinsic magnetosphere

Mars*… then we might actually be Martians. Which means when NASA’s [Mars Sample Return Mission](https://mars.nasa.gov/msr/) brings back the samples Perseverance is currently collecting, we might be in for a BIG surprise

There are no trees or shrubs on Antarctica. The permafrost prevents root growth. The [Curiosity rover](https://mars.nasa.gov/msl/weather/) which is near the equator, sees nighttime temperatures below -100F (-73C). You can grow

That's the [Ultra-High Frequency \(UHF\) antenna](https://mars.nasa.gov/msl/spacecraft/rover/communication/) used to communicate back and forth with Earth through orbiting satellites around Mars. Not sure exactly what that cover is, but it likely helps

enough FOV to capture it all on one go, but the result is [quite unspectacular!](https://mars.nasa.gov/raw_images/1130002?site=msl)
