How to have a reptilian species survive in cold environments?

So, in the far off year of 2569, there are two main empires contending for control in the Alpha Quadrant. They are the United Terran Federation and the Qualian Star Empire.

The former empire is made up of the terrans (humans) and the latter is made up of a reptilian species called the Qualians, who hail form a lush tropical planet, Qualis.

Like most reptiles, the Qualians are oviparous, can see in ultraviolet, and are cold-blooded. That last thing is important. You see, in my story my main human character and a Qualian, who were stationed on the icy planet of Chronos 3 to complete an important mission.

The problem is, the Qualian can't survive on cold planets like that without freezing to death. So, how could you help this poor creature survive?
