- Where's the coldest spot in the universe? Not on the moon, where the temperature plunges to a mere minus 378 Fahrenheit. Not even in deepest outer space, which has a temperature of about minus 455°F. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/phenom-200801.html 29 comments science

- Tardigrades (micro-animals surviving in harshest environment: lowest / highest temperatures, vacuum of outer space, etc.) can surviving extreme radiation 1,000 times more intense than human limit, because, unlike humans, they can increase DNA repair to the levels almost unparalleled in other animals https://www.cell.com/current-biology/abstract/S0960-9822(24)00316-6 40 comments science
- This device harnesses the cold night sky to generate electricity in the dark - A new device is an anti-solar panel, harvesting energy from the cold night sky. By harnessing the temperature difference between Earth and outer space. https://www.sciencenews.org/article/device-harnesses-cold-night-sky-generate-electricity-dark 19 comments worldnews
- An ultrapure material taken to pressures greater than that in the depths of the ocean and chilled to temperatures colder than outer space has revealed an unexpected phase transition that crosses two different phase categories. http://phys.org/news/2015-10-physicists-phase-transition.html 22 comments science
- They Came From Outer Space. Now, They’re Going Into Hiding. Rising temperatures in Antarctica are making meteorites sink out of view before researchers can collect them. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/08/climate/meteorites-antarctica.html?smid=url-share&unlocked_article_code=1.i00.vqE-.Hl3ss9wIKTzR 2 comments climate
- In situ thermometry of a cold Fermi gas via dephasing impurities. A quantum thermometer to measure the coldest temperatures in the universe. Physicists have proposed a thermometer based on quantum entanglement that can accurately measure temperatures a billion times colder than those in outer space. https://www.tcd.ie/news_events/articles/a-quantum-thermometer-to-measure-the-coldest-temperatures-in-the-universe/ 6 comments science
- Physicists have created the first “electron liquid” at room temperature, meaning we’re one step closer to devices that would improve communications in outer space, cancer detection, and scanning for concealed weapons https://news.ucr.edu/articles/2019/02/04/uc-riverside-physicists-create-exotic-electron-liquid 3 comments science
