Scientists create hottest temperature since Big Bang - 250,000 times more scorching than our Sun

Scientists have created the hottest temperature ever seen on earth - an astonishing four trillion degrees Celsius.

The searing heats have been verified by the Guinness Book of Records, who confirmed the record-breaking temperature, which is 250,000 times warmer than the centre of the sun and was last seen in the universe a split second after the Big Bang.

The ultra hot explosions, which lasted for less than a billionth of a second, were created in a giant atom smasher at New York's Brookhaven National Laboratory.


The experiment is shedding new light on how the universe was created in a massive explosion between 13 and 14 billion years ago.
