What will happen to you if you stay in Titan for 5 seconds?

Titan is one of the moon of Saturn

Titan, the most majestic of Saturn's many moons and the most promising for life. It has beautiful views and liquid lakes on the surface. The only problem is that these lakes are not filled with water but with liquid methane.

Titan is far away. Even closer to Earth, this icy moon still has a value of 1.2 billion kilometers away from us. that would mean about seven years of solo spacecraft travel. You need lots of supplies and a highly advanced survival system. You know it would be nice if you arrived on Titan and didn't freeze or suffocate somewhere in the middle of the solar system. It is incredible to see Saturn up close, by far the most spectacular of all the ringed planets in the solar system

Titan is unique in many ways. First, it is larger than our moon. it is even larger than Mercury, the smallest planet in our cosmic neighborhood. It is the only moon with a dense atmosphere. It is also the only place covered by liquid lakes, rivers and seas, and sometimes it rains here too.It would take about two and a half hours to launch Titan from Saturn and there would be nowhere to land. Titan is covered with lakes. So unless you want the entire ship to be submerged in liquid methane, it's best to choose your landing spot carefully. Now that you have landed safely on Titan, let's explore this frozen world. This moon of Saturn may look a lot like Venus, but it's not as devilishly hot. Titan is one of the friendliest places in the solar system.Its gravity is only 14 times that of Earth, but its denser atmosphere makes it passable without a space suit. but I would not recommend it. You need a space suit to keep you warm. Titan is far from the sun, so it doesn't get as much heat as we do on Earth. At minus 180 degrees Celsius you would go for a brisk walk.Well you wouldn't walk like you were jumping anymore, yes thanks to the Titan's weaker gravity you would feel a lot lighter and now you could jump higher and move around with less effort. Titan's atmosphere is mostly nitrogen, similar to Earth's, but the moon was still unbreathable, because that's where the similarities end. While 95% of air is nitrogen, the remaining 5% is methane. You need an oxygen tank to survive even five, seconds in this world. Lakes aren't the only ones that contain methane. In the clouds of the titans, there are many of them, and sometimes even methane falls in the rain. But this rain is unlike anything you've seen on Earth. Due to Titan's low gravity and dense atmosphere, it would look more like slow motion rain. On Earth, raindrops fall at a speed of about 9 meters per second, but on Titan their speed is only about 1.6 meters per second.it is six times slower. Titan has a very cold tub. At these temperatures, water is harder than concrete, but methane and ethane can still cool into liquid form and then collect in these cool little pools. Let's say you put on this awesome space suit. The good news is that you won't turn into a stone cold astronaut right away. This costume will suit you if for some strange reason you decide not to wear a costume.Well, the intense cold would freeze you to the bone, you wouldn't be able to move a muscle, and the lack of oxygen would kill you. but in a space suit he'll probably last five seconds. Sparks appear after another five seconds. it's like a stabbing burn. The low temperature caused the suit to rupture and the methane to react with the oxygen tank inside.
