Can I just throw in randomly here that space is not by nature cold? If
it were, how could a vacuum bottle (a Thermos) keep hot coffee hot?
Space is nothing, or at least really really close to nothing, and vacuum
insulates pretty durn well. Now, if you're a few hundred million miles
from the nearest heat source, you might have an issue, but generally,
working inside the radius of where inhabitable planets orbit, you'll
have more trouble getting RID of heat. ::nods::
