Poor Andy - lunar space suit #nasa

Since the moon, unlike the Earth, has no air layer to absorb the sun's rays, temperatures can reach 250° Fahrenheit, well above the boiling point of water. There is also the problem of heat [Music] conduction. The soles of ordinary boots would provide scant insulation from the heat of the sunlit lunar surface. But that's not all. In addition, glare, infrared radiation, and ultraviolet rays from the sun could permanently damage Andy's [Music] eyes. The lunar night would hold an additional peril. The intense cold of space could quick freeze Andy to -271° F, 300° below the freezing point of water. [Music]
