Nov 29, 2018 at 17:33 comment added Steve Linton One interesting question is whether that much cold methane is enough (a) to get rid of the heat produced by the suit and its occupant (a big problem on Mars, for instance) (b) enough to provide a significant cold problem, requiring extra active heating or insulation in the suit.

Nov 29, 2018 at 14:03 comment added DrSheldon @DarkDust: I thought the same thing. However, let's consider this on its merits as a question, not on the person posting it. It looks to me as a valid question. Uwe's answer is good. I'm about to do a tag edit to clean up the tags.

Nov 29, 2018 at 10:54 comment added GdD This isn't really different from any other spacesuit question, 1psi of pressure is the Armstrong limit. It's not like it would happen anyway, methane is too unstable.
Nov 29, 2018 at 7:59 comment added DarkDust Oh dear… yet another user of that name. It's the same name as was used for the repeated "helmet on Mars" questions that were asked (and all closed) lately.
Nov 29, 2018 at 6:49 comment added Hobbes is the temperature constant, or are there day/night variations?
Nov 29, 2018 at 5:58 comment added Antzi @NathanTuggy I had misread the value for mars (0.9 PSI instead of 0.09 PSI).
Nov 29, 2018 at 5:49 comment added Nathan Tuggy @Antzi: Not really a dupe. Mars has no pressure to speak of, so a Mars suit needs less insulation and more skin pressure than this presumably would.
