Why do temperature get as high as billion degrees but only as low as -270 degrees?
In: 10036
Temperatures that tend to be useful for humans are, on the grand scheme of things, remarkably cold. There’s no need for our “human useful” scales to be calibrated to such high numbers. To humans, there isn’t really a difference between 10,000C and 1,000,000C. They’re both too dang hot. That’s the same reason scientists use Kelvin, starting from zero makes the most sense in experiments.
