What should be the thickness of the clothing material covering the surface of this skin tissue to reduce the heat flux to half of its original value? What is the temperature at the skin-clothing material interface?

Imagine that a hypothetical life form is discovered on our moon and transported to Earth. On a hot day, this life form begins to
sweat, and it is determined that the heat of vaporization of its sweat is 339 cal/g. The scientist observing the extraterrestrial
life form also begins to sweat. The heat of vaporization of the scientist's sweat is 580 cal/g at the skin's surface.
If both the extraterrestrial life form and the scientist lose 259 g of sweat over the course of one hour, calculate the heat lost by
each body from the vaporization of sweat.
extraterrestrial:
cal
human scientist:
