On a plateau in eastern Antarctica, scientists recently used a satellite to detect and measure the coldest temperature ever recorded. The chilly Antarctica weather measured in at -135.8 degrees Fahrenheit. Its so cold there that if you breath, your throat and lungs have a chance of freezing. The longest someone could survive at this temperature would be about three minutes. This record low temp was recorded near Vostok, where the record high was 4 degress Fahrenheit in the middle of the summer.
