But if you happen to have a CO² geyser, you can refill it constantly, if you dont need the gas anywhere else. You wont get a dense atmosphere, but its enough for a steady heat transfer, if you deliver the gas in a wide spread to the area.

Yeah have done it, with a luckly nearby CO² geyser with ~-40° output. The density never raised above serveral grams, but the cold gas cooled really good, prior to disapperaing into space.

You have to try it for yourself, or dont believe me at all. Thats up to you.

Thats up to you. How old? the robo-miner was added in the current update I'm sorry but I'm having a hard time believing small amounts of CO2 (which has a low thermal conductivity) can keep multiple robo-miners from overheating in a vacuum across the whole surface, and what do you do about the geyser downtime?
