Cold Atoms Lab: ice-cold is not cold enough
In the Cold Atoms Lab, scientists can observe ultra-cold atom clouds made up of several thousand atoms in microgravity conditions. After all, ice-cold simply is not cold enough in quantum physics: only at close to absolute zero, at –273.15 degrees Celsius, do the right conditions prevail.
