The Race for Absolute Zero Worksheet

Air-conditioning, refrigeration, and superconductivity are just some of the ways technology has put cold to use. But what is cold, how do you achieve it, and how cold can it get? This NOVA Absolute Zero Worksheet located at the links above follows along as the film explores these and other facets of the frigid in two one-hour programs. Along the way students learn about the invention of thermometers, the origin of the ice business in 1800's, Clarence Birdseye's fishing trip that led to the invention of frozen food, and a couple of cold-inspired scientific races towards absolute zero that ended in Nobel Prizes.
