There's also a Planck temperature, which is the highest we can currently predict in the Standard Model - that's the temperature at which thermal radiation is at the highest possible energy
Wikipedia (Near-Earth Supernova) says that a 25 ly away supernova would wipe out half the ozone layer so that’s probably the lower bound for what we want
I picked up a low pressure sodium lamp and am working on a Halloween demonstration. I’m hoping to make a display that appears one way under normal light, but looks totally different under the monochromatic 589nm sodium vapor light....
Would it count as easy to make the colors in a photo editing tool (picking things of the same value and saturation but different hues) and then converting to the CMYK designation?
ゆっくりしていってね!Japanese uses both して and していって (can sound like してって). Adding いって to something gives it a sense of being “ongoing” and other forms of て+いる also exist
Is there a temperature so hot that relativistic effects are noticeable?

If you could have either a holodeck or a replicator, which one would you pick?
Is there an easy way to generate a list of CMYK color values that will appear identical to the human eye under 589nm light?
