Still Waters Posted December 8, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Scientists have discovered the coldest place on Earth - where the air temperature plummets to below -91C. The newly-found spot - situated along an Antarctic mountain ridge - could freeze a human's eyes, nose and lungs within minutes. http://www.dailymail...c-mountain.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beelzebufo Posted December 8, 2013 #3 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Wow, I didn't realize it got that cold on earth. Where I used to live I saw temperatures of -50C, and I thought that was God-awful. Can't imagine how this would feel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightly Posted December 8, 2013 #5 Share Posted December 8, 2013 It's been minus 50º F here before. .. that makes it around 700 degrees below in my van in the morning. Actually, most vehicles won't start that cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bavarian Raven Posted December 9, 2013 #10 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Wouldnt CO2 freeze right out of the air at that temp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundew Posted December 9, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Wouldnt CO2 freeze right out of the air at that temp? According to Wiki, the freezing point of CO2 is -78.5 C, so your answer is yes, unless other conditions might somehow prevent that.

BiffSplitkins Posted December 9, 2013 #12 Share Posted December 9, 2013 And all this time I thought the coldest place on earth was inside my ex-wife's heart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highdesert50 Posted December 9, 2013 #13 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I suppose that makes the average Martian temperature of -50C relatively balmy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hankenhunter Posted January 11, 2014 #17 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Is that static temperature? I wonder if the wind chill factor could bump it even lower? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug1029 Posted January 11, 2014 #18 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Wow, I didn't realize it got that cold on earth. Where I used to live I saw temperatures of -50C, and I thought that was God-awful. Can't imagine how this would feel. At that, it barely edged out Oymyakov, Russia by only half a degree. That town has held the record since 1933! Moscow, IDAHO got a -48 degrees C. in 1969. Down here in Oklahoma, we had some -40s in 1886 - that's OUR all-time record. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug1029 Posted January 11, 2014 #19 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) There have been a number of -55s and -60s from the Yukon. Doug Edited January 11, 2014 by Doug1029 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
