A very cool computer!!
A very cool computer!!
The subtext to this picture is:
This picture was taken on the coldest day of the year (1995). Although it may not come across very well on film, it's about -109 out there. Getting a camera to survive the extreme cold is a bit of an art.
Now that's cool for ya

Nitrogen, Refrigerated Liquid
Health
Effects:
Inhalation: May cause suffocation by displacing the oxygen in the air. Exposure to oxygen-deficient atmospheres may cause dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diminished mental alertness, loss of consciousness, and death. It should be recognized that collapse and asphyxiation may occur without experiencing any of the above symptoms. Prolonged breathing of very cold atmospheres can cause lung damage and hypothermia.
Skin: Frozen tissues, caused by frostbite are painless and appear waxy with a possible yellow color. They will become swollen, painful, and prone to infection when thawed.
Physical Data
Boiling point: -320.4ºF (-195.8ºC) at 1 ATM

Balamm: cooler.
Balamm: coolest.
as i said somewhere else, liquid helium is a lot cooler than liquid nitrogen.
-269 degrees centigrade plays -196
however, a bose-einstein condensate is even cooler
it's a new form of matter and can be as low in temp as
158 billionths of a degree above absolute zero
now that is damn cool
another interesting fact is that if you pass light through a bose-einstein condensate, it is slowed down from 187000 miles per second to just 30 centimetres per second

Hahaha... this is great. Posted this out of boredom, and people actually got the gist of it...
balamm, as usual, pulls through.
Ah... my time as a lounge lizard is always short, but it try to have fun while here...
