Temperature Can Reach Trillions of Degrees, Meaning We Actually Live Extremely Close to Absolute Zero

Ever wondered if your bank balance could hit the cosmic “billion‑aire” level? One Redditor just dropped a truth bomb that made everyone question whether we’re living in a universe‑wide sauna or a giant freezer. Spoiler: it’s both.

The gist? The hottest spots in the cosmos are hotter than your summer barbecue—think trillions of degrees—while the coldest are so frigid they’d make a snowman weep. And guess what? We’re practically chilling at absolute zero, because if you’re a human living on Earth, you’re almost at the coldest possible temperature (unless you’re a sub‑atomic particle, then you’re in trouble).

So next time you’re sipping a latte, remember: your cup of coffee is a tiny, warm bubble floating in a galaxy that can heat up faster than a microwave and cool down slower than a fridge on a long‑distance flight.

I could technically have hundreds of trillions of dollars…
So, I’m pretty close to a billionaire.

Wow

No, you're close to absolute 0 in that equation.

Also the highest and lowest known occurring temperatures were both recorded on earth.
(might be wrong about the lowest, but definitely the hottest was at CERN)
Edit: Was not wrong.
The lowest was in Germany and was 38 picokelvins.
Which is pretty chilly.
(Translated from Canadian: It's so cold it will absolutely kill you in x amount of time. In this case approaching 0 is that amount of time.)
The hottest was at RHIC in the USA, and CERN in Switzerland respectively, and was 5 × 10¹² (which is 5 trillion) °C (which is about 200ish degrees C off from Kelvin and I don't feel like figuring out how to write the exact Kelvin temp out. So you're getting Celsius. Just be content it's not Fahrenheit.)
P.s. Fahrenheit is the least American English way to spell Fahrenheit possible! Seriously took me like 7 minutes to figure out there was no g in it.
Anyways… To unsubscribe from Probably correct, but honestly my memory is pretty slipshod and just looking it up ruins the fun if sharing knowledge I (maybe) already know when it's not requested or needed.
Text DUDEPLSSTOP to… idk, a number. I can't do punchlines anymore.

Humor: “Recorded” is doing the heavy lifting.

TL;DR: The universe is a cosmic temperature rollercoaster—trillions of degrees on one end, picokelvins on the other, and we’re chilling near absolute zero like the ultimate chill‑out spot. Stay frosty, folks!
