Conditions for no heat transfer between two objects?
Heater is energy. Energy transfers from the higher energy unit to the lower energy unit, until they reach equilibrium. Equilibrium is when both objects contain the same amount of energy, therefore it is impossible for any to transfer between each other. The basic conditions for no heat transfer between two objects is for them to be the same temperature. To keep them at that same temperature, they would have to be floating in a perfect vacuum chamber so they had no contact with matter whatsoever. They would have to be shielded from infrared heat energy as well.
How were all the bog bodies preserved so well?
Bog bodies were preserved well due to the unique conditions of bogs, such as low oxygen, cold temperature, and acidic environment. The acidic peat in bogs prevents bacteria and organisms from breaking down the bodies, effectively mummifying them. The lack of oxygen also slows the decay process.

What is it called when atmospheric conditions cause nonexistent bodies of water to be seen?
