It's cold. You are sitting on what appears to be a water ice-covered world. The Sun is low on the horizon and circles the horizon once every 24 hours.

Despite these discomforts, you are pleased to find that the air is quite satisfactory; oxygen seems plentiful and you are able to breathe even without the life-support belt.
