   Or what your cites say.  Or what the facts say.  Or what reality says.   
   Poor troll.

   No, they use it to measure the PRESSURE.

   So Mars pressure is 5000 times even a poor grade 'vacuum', since it's   
   around 5 torr.

   Yes, the PRESSURE in outer space.  Torr measures pressure.   
      
   So Earth sea level 'vacuum' is 760 torr?  Torr measures vacuum, not   
   pressure, right?

   Try learning something.  Can you do that?
