Greetings all. I am kid of new to the forum so have been doing a lot of reading on the earlier threads in this forum. One that I found interesting was the heated discussion about surviving (or more like dying very quickly) on Mars without a space suit and physiological effects of a vacuum and lack of oxygen.<br /><br />Now I can't help but wonder, what if you were on Titan and you just stepped out of the airlock in regular street clothes?<br /><br />My guess is that your body would almost instantly freeze solid, you lungs would turn to ice if you took a breath. It's easy to presume there'd be no way to keep yourself warm in that kind of temperatures, but from what I understand, people have survived very extreme temperatres exploring Earth's poles, well under 100 below I believe.<br /><br />How long would it take for you to freeze? If you wore layers of arctic-exploration type clothing would it sustain you a minute or two longer?<br /><br />The presure is />1 bar so pressure probably wouldn't be a problem. What if you had a tank of heated oxygen to breathe through a regulator (electrically warmed to 98.6) but still had your street clothes on?<br /><br />What effect would the chemical composition there have on your body?<br /><br />I am curious what the minds that post here think about this. (If it's already been discussed, forgive me that I missed it)<br /><br />Heyo
