Hottest temperature ever heads science to Big Bang

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Scientists have created the hottest temperature ever in the lab -- 4 trillion degrees Celsius -- hot enough to break matter down into the kind of soup that existed microseconds after the birth of the universe.

But that is enough to give physicists fodder for years of study that they hope will help them understand why and how the universe formed.

We shall see...

What the physicists are looking for are tiny irregularities that can explain why matter clumped out of the primeval hot soup.

This will be interesting to see what these findings are. I'd be curious to know how it all started personally. I think a few will parallel my curiousity.

I also think it's interesting to note that this occurred in a 2.4 mile long collider in Upton, New York.

I wasn't aware there was a collider there.

Now I am curious as to how many colliders there actually are in the world.

I don't know how many there are around the world...But they started building one outside of Dallas back in the early 1990s.

I wonder if this heat created anything or just destroyed everything.

I do believe the beginning started with a compression. But nothing like this experiment.

I do believe the compression created a lot of heat. But it was done in a more controlled fashion than this. But i will be on the fence for this one. Its interesting information.
