概要

You think the dark side of Pluto is cold. You think the void between galaxies is colder. But none of them compare to a laboratory on Earth.

In this episode, I reveal the coldest place in the entire universe — and it is not in space. The Boomerang Nebula holds the natural record at minus 458 degrees Fahrenheit, just one degree above absolute zero. But humans have gone further. Much further. The Cold Atom Laboratory on the International Space Station has achieved temperatures of minus 459.6 degrees Fahrenheit — 100 million times colder than deep space. And on Earth, the FermiLab's Cold Box reached minus 460 degrees, just 1/500,000th of a degree above absolute zero. At these temperatures, matter stops behaving like matter. Atoms merge into a single quantum state called a Bose-Einstein Condensate. Based on NASA data, quantum physics research, and peer-reviewed studies, this episode explores the science of extreme cold and why scientists are willing to freeze atoms into submission. Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play — because the coldest place in the universe is not out there. It is right here.
