  1. Brrr! Postcards from Mars show a frosty Phoenix on the north polar plains during Martian winter http://bit.ly/2kCuf4 *waves* 4:04 PM Nov 4th from Seesmic
  2. @NegativeK Seasons last roughly 2x as long as on Earth. Mars axial tilt is slightly greater than Earth's while orbit is far more elliptical. 2:53 PM Oct 27th from Seesmic in reply to NegativeK
