minus-squaresalvaria@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·2 months ago The average temperature of the universe today is approximately 2.73 K (−270.42 °C; −454.76 °F), based on measurements of cosmic microwave background radiation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero Cited from https://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2003/09/25/947116.htm
minus-squareAeonFelis@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·2 months agoWonder how they calculated the “average” temperature. Was it weighted by mass or by volume?
minus-squareFeathercrown@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoOnly mass-weighting really makes sense here imo
minus-squareEinskjaldi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoWouldn’t that be just star and not star?
minus-squareAeonFelis@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoNo - it’d mostly be dark matter vs not dark matter.
minus-squareFeathercrown@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoI’m still on the “dark matter isn’t real” train. It would be so unsatisfying if it was the answer.
minus-squareAeonFelis@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoDark mind is definitely real though
minus-squarevin@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoDoesn’t matter, it’s just the eventual temperature of a black body kept in deep space
minus-squareflying_sheep@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoThat’s purely academic. IRL what actually matters is “how big and reflective is the thing you’re in”. You’d get real hot real fast in a matte black space suit.
minus-squaretomiant@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoWell yes, because space is not actually a complete vacuum.
