Hi!
I have a question about space suits on Mars. I've done a google search and find conflicting information.
In my YA novel the protagonist makes a quick stop on Mars (just for a couple of minutes).
I wonder if it's possible for a human to visit Mars surface for a couple of minutes with just a helmet (oxygen) and not a full space suit? I've heard that "humans would not survive long under such conditions". But my question is could we survive a couple of minutes in that atmospheric pressure with oxygen provided?
Thanks
