Quantum Gas Temperature Drops Below Absolute Zero
Scientists have now figured out how to cool things to below absolute zero. BELOW absolute zero.
Let me just rephrase that. There’s a temperature in the universe that things can’t go below because heat is energy and at that temperature there’s literally no more energy left to lose. Going below absolute zero is like eating a cake that isn’t there. THERE IS NO CAKE, STOP TRYING TO EAT IT also all your molecules are inert and you can’t chew things okay this metaphor is breaking down.
Then scientists came by and said, “we’re gonna take some more energy out of it anyway because quantum” and I guess the universe said “oh, well, quantum” or something because now this happened.
There was a smart guy who once said that any sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic and clearly he was right because this shit is fucking sorcery.
