woah that's so cool, so the expanding steam is making a barrier across the surface of the skin!?!?

if you shot a durian at the sun, how close could it get before burning up?

would it form a tiny atmosphere with microscopic weather patterns and have a comets tail of steam?

    While there's definitely a distance at which you could teleport a durian at which it would form a cute micro-comet, it would be practically invisible. Comets are huge things, 100s of meters to kilometers across. The only way you'd be able to appreciate the durian micro-comet would be if you were right next to it. Conveniently, you'd also be able to appreciate the "you" micro-comet you'd form.
