引力 1g (9.8m/s^2) 0.38g (3.7m/s^2)
太阳日 (solar day) 24h 24h 39m 35s
公转 1y (365.25d) 1.8809y (1y 320d 18h)

火星和地球表面12

地球 火星

希腊平原的底部温度比同纬度地区高 10 度左右,气压也能达到 1 kPa以上。

火星日照¤

火星的日照水平是地球的 43%,是可观的能源,可以支撑农业,也可以支撑一些化工生产7489

根据位置和天气的不同,火星表面太阳能可达约 \(400 \mathrm{W/m^2/day}\)57.

作为对照,一个 iPhone 14 Pro 的电池容量大约为 12 Wh6. 假定太阳能电池板的效率是 0.25,每平方米太阳能电池板,每天积累下来的电力大约有 0.5 kWh,大致可以充满 42 个 iPhone 14 Pro。
