Why Houses in the Coldest Place on Earth Don't Freeze at -70°C

How can people live inside a house when temperatures outside can plunge toward -70°C? In this engineering documentary, we explore how homes in one of the coldest inhabited places on Earth stay warm despite extreme Siberian winters. From thick insulation and powerful heating systems to sealed windows, protected pipes, elevated foundations, and permafrost engineering, every part of the house plays a role in fighting the cold. Discover the science and engineering that allow everyday life to continue in an environment where almost everything outside can freeze.
