READING:

Scientists found the coldest place on Earth. The temperature is minus 93.2 degrees Celsius. It is on Antarctica. Scientists must do more tests. The real temperature could be colder. A scientist said it is hard to imagine such cold weather. He explained: "It's almost as cold below freezing as boiling water is above freezing." Antarctica is 50 degrees colder than Siberia. Temperatures on the Moon once reached minus 238 degrees Celsius.

The record temperatures won't be in the Guinness Book of Records. This is because scientists didn't use a thermometer. They were also too close to the ice. The scientist is sure that the records are real. He said it was too cold for a thermometer. He said it was so cold that people cannot breathe the air. When scientists go outside, they must wear a snorkel that goes inside their coat. They breathe the warm air close to their skin.
