The hottest known temperature in the universe

 

The hottest known temperature in the universe is the Planck temperature, which is:

🔥 Planck Temperature:

~1.416808(33) × 10³² Kelvin (K)


🌌 What Is It?

  • It’s the theoretical maximum temperature where known physics breaks down, especially gravity and quantum mechanics.
  • Above this temperature, current physical theories, including general relativity and quantum field theory, no longer apply.
  • Thought to occur immediately after the Big Bang, during the Planck epoch (10⁻⁴³ seconds after time began).

💥 Hottest Real Events Observed

Here are some actual high-temperature phenomena observed or created:

Event Temperature Description
Big Bang (earliest moments) ~10³² K Universe's beginning, likely reached Planck temperature.
Large Hadron Collider (CERN) ~5.5 trillion K Created in heavy ion collisions (quark-gluon plasma).
Supernovae cores ~1 billion K Core-collapse explosions of massive stars.
Neutron star mergers ~100 billion K Extreme collisions observed via gravitational waves.
