Some people can't wrap their heads around 20 below zero. Other people say, "Twenty below? Wait until it is 60 below." But it has been warmer lately and we appreciate it. Now, it is 45 degrees outside, somewhat balmy. I walked outside for the 2nd day in a row. I did keep my hands in my coat pockets some but I didn't wear gloves or a hat. It was nice.
Of course, in our garage, it is 1936° but only inside Lynn's kiln. That is quite warm. We don't touch the machine at that temperature without a mitt to protect our hand.
What is the highest temperature that can be reached by a substance?
Some physicists posit that the highest temperature is Planck Temperature. They claim it is the highest possible temperature that matter could theoretically exist at. It is approximately 1.41679 x 10^32 Kelvin. That's roughly 100 million million million million million degrees.Jan 7, 2012
Is there a limit on how hot something can get?
Wikipedia says at above 1.416785×1032 K, all theories breakdown. So, that is theoretical limit. In actuality, 7.2 trillion deg F is the highest known temperature, and that is in Large Hadron Collider (LHC) when they smash gold particles together.
