It'd be a neat exercise to calculate the time difference for a standard reaction between 95 K and 298 K. Someone must've done this somewhere...


Thanks for all the info mike, is this the kind of article you were thinking of? There's a neat table about halfway down.

Low gravity. Thick Atmosphere. Very low temperature. Low density grains. I wonder if we should be looking for similar dune-like structures in ocean floor strata.
