Holy crap ... -93°C — colder than dry ice ... brrrrrrrrrrr.

New Record for Coldest Place on Earth, in Antarctica
Scientists measure lowest temperature on Earth via satellites.

If you think this winter is cold, be glad you're not in Antarctica.


Using new satellite data, scientists have measured the most frigid temperature ever recorded on the continent's eastern highlands: about -136°F (-93°C)—colder than dry ice.

The temperature breaks the 30-year-old record of about -128.6°F (-89.2°C), measured by the Vostok weather station in a nearby location.

Give it time ... just wait until it turns out to be last place on earth with viable oil reserves.

Yes your right but we need to bomb people first so we use up the oil to make the military industrial complex work.

No worries ... the military industrial complex are already working on the al-quaeda-penguin conspiracy theories, busy faking all the incriminating intel as we speak. whistling
