<bofh> ahh
<bofh> right, that one.
<bofh> nice.
<UmbralRaptop> "Interestingly, both engineers were surprised to find that the temperature inside a parabolic curve would drop to somewhere between 10 K and –40 K."
<UmbralRaptop> -40? o_O
<whitequark> what
<UmbralRaptop> Something about passive cooling of space telescopes

<bofh> UmbralRaptop: minus 40K via passive cooling? even more what.
<Raptop> I have no idea where the minus sign came from.
<bofh> like between +10K and +40K makes sense for a space telescope

<SnoopJeDi> negative absolute temperature is also just a thing which is kind of unfortunate
<SnoopJeDi> ...but hopefully not what is meant in this case heh.
<bofh> yeah I'd be very worried if my space telescope optics were at negative absolute temperatures
<bofh> pretty sure any glass doesn't tolerate that
<SnoopJeDi> might be useful for a space antitelescope
<Raptop> The context was such that the negative absolute temperature was either a weird modeling limitation or a tyop
<Raptop> probably
<SnoopJeDi> oh, I perhaps read too quickly
* Raptop continues to stab velocities
