StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

Right.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

When you have a medium such as an atmosphere to do that.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

Cool breeze.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

Yeah, the cool breeze will cool you down faster than just you radiating your heat.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

You're radiating it away, your whole heat.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

Okay.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

It's slightly different.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

The cool breeze is forcing your sweat to evaporate, and the evaporation takes energy out of you.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

But, so let's get back to...

to the absolute zero.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

So I keep taking heat out and the temperature gets lower and lower and lower.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

You reach a point where quantum phenomena dominates and you can no longer use classical reasoning.

StarTalk Radio

This, by the way, Dalton was not alone in this intersection, this troubled paradoxical intersection between classical physics and what we call modern physics.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

So you get down there and you try to take more heat out and you can't because, and by the way, taking heat out means that particles are moving slower and slower.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

The heat is vibrational energy typically.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

So you take that out.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

And there's a regime where the quantum fluctuations prevent it from ever stopping its motion.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

All right?

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

Okay.

StarTalk Radio
Cosmic Queries โ€“ Total Darkness

So you're saying, let me...
