QUESTION: What is the boiling temperature of water on Mars at its pressure? ANSWER from Bob Haberle on October 28, 1997: Average Mars surface pressure is about 6-7 mb which is very close to the triple point. So boiling would technically begin at about 0 degrees Celsius (32 F). However, the vapor pressure of water is so low in the Martian atmosphere that liquid water is not stable. Robert M.
