OffTheSteppe Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 How about the frozen methane or CO2 on some of the outer planets? I wonder what it would be like to drive an ice tool into that stuff? Would have to be extra careful not to catch the cuff of your space suit with your crampon points though - it could certainly "let the air out" of your vacation. Quote

jlawrence10 Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 I could definitely climb some serious vertical, maybe even overhanging, ice... ... in 1/6 gravity. And only in 1/6 gravity. Quote
