On Your Visit To Mars

Three times higher on Mars you can jump, which is great, but you'll sure be a grump if you visit the spot so incredibly hot that the sun, when it's close, roasts your rump! For the Life On Mars Poetry Contest of Brian Davey

What I want to know is how they know you can jump 3 times higher. :) It gets hot enough here in summer. I'm good. :)

they figured it out by science, something about the gravity field! and one of the hemispheres there gets hotter than any place on earth, but just for a short time.
