Then there is the magnetic field that shields earth from particles borne on the solar wind which is lacking on both the moon and Mars so the cancer rate would be scary.
Being born as the first generation probably would not make much of a difference but live evolves, Mars being only like a 1/4 size of earth would be a huge difference in gravity. Since i am sure that gravity has a lot to do with the way we look, the way we are now, can you imagine what we would look like if we evolved on mars?
