About this product
Product Information
The documentary special NOVA: Absolute Zero incorporates two separate NOVA episodes on the subject of cold temperature. Both parts (as originally screened on PBS back-to-back) explore and chart humankind's quest to understand and achieve manufactured cold over the trajectory of time. Part one, The Conquest of Cold, roughly spans the period of 1600 through the late 19th century. It begins in an era when mankind neither understood nor appreciated the intrinsic nature of hot and cold; many argued that both were aspects of the same basic phenomenon, but found this notion difficult to prove - until such groundbreakers as Antoine Lavoisier, Cornelius Drebbel and Michael Faraday codified related scientific ideas for future generations and thus spurred the Industrial Revolution on to new and lofty heights. Episode two, The Race for Absolute Zero, recounts scientists' relentless competition with one another (including that between Heike Onnes and James Dewar) to push cold temperatures to unseen lows, and their success in finally reaching the subthermal level at which nitrogen and oxygen liquefy (-253° Celsius, or 20 degrees above absolute zero). The program then wraps by moving ahead to the end of the 20th century and examining Daniel Kleppner's success in achieving the formation of the Bose-Einstein condensate, a rare form of matter that appears as temperatures reach absolute zero. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

- t***e (48)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWow! First of all CD was shipped fast. And condition is way better than advertised, this thing is darn close to brand new. Now I order a lot of CDs but the packaging on this one was incredible. On top of cardboard protection and padded envelope the seller put a piece of cloth between the bottom of the CD and the tray to prevent any scratches. I’m speechless. Need a better grade for this seller than A+. If I find anything else in their store I need I’m buying it here. Thank you!Reply from: mayhemsonline- Feedback replied to by seller mayhemsonline.- Feedback replied to by seller mayhemsonline.Awesome buyer for sure!!! thank you!!!
