Interestingly enough, the human astronauts do not wear
gloves...  Their hands must get very cold in a vacuum.

Mars is not in a vacuum, it has an atmosphere, but a very cold one!

  Yes, but what about the flight from Earth to Mars?  It's not like Lego
bothered to make the cockpit of the Solar Explorer airtight (and why would
they do something sensible like that?).  Anyway, can we say "frostbite".
No, wait, the Martian atmosphere would probably freeze their hands solid,
instant popsicle.  It could be yellow gloves though...
