Welcome to the Science Mondays segment! Each week here on Geek Alabama, Science Mondays will feature stuff from the world of science and science related content. Our goal here at Geek Alabama is to hopefully have you learn something useful and fulfilling. Science is a geek’s best friend, and we love featuring science content here at Geek Alabama.

There is only one place in the solar system, other than Earth, where you could stand on the ground without a pressure suit. It isn’t Mars. It isn’t Venus. And it isn’t a planet at all.

Tonight we step outside on every world — no suit, no ship, just you — and find out what would really happen to your body, and how long you’d last. We start with the worst places in the solar system and work our way up: the oven of Venus, the bottomless fall into Jupiter, the winds of Saturn, the coldest air ever measured, the real vacuum accident NASA had in 1966, the Moon, Pluto, the thin air of Mars… and the one world where you could take off your pressure suit. Plus a second place, even stranger, where the air you breathe would float.
