@Fuhgawzzz Nah dry ice only hurts on contact; you can actually hold a piece as long as it doesn't sit in the same spot on your hand
-
is it really 100 degree celcius or fahrenheit? coz you will burn yourself at a 100 degree celcius. that's the boiling point of water.

@5ergey You do realize you're a dipshit and have that completely wrong right? Cotton has horrible thermal conductivity. It doesn't cool to hand temperature "almost instantly". Take a 120F cotton sheet out of your drier and it feels hot for a few minutes. Dipfuck. Get it right.

@one694u Meu pai trabalha na nasa, ele me falo que foram os ETs que mostraram como fazer isso.

They got to insulate homes with this stuff.

I think I'll use this on my weekend trips to the sun.

i would not want to touch a 100c surface

One thing that caught my attention is that she holds her wrist about an inch away from that cube wich was 78 degrees cold. That chill would definitely hurt you, even if you're not touching it directly. Ice cold woman?

@yvoe9 Yeah thats like boiling point. Hands of steel. Or should I say hands of aerogel.
@satanicwafflez There is a big difference between touching a 100C piece of metal, and say wood or better yet say cotton at 100C. the surface of the cotton cools to hand temperature almost instantly and there is no heat flow to allow it to warm back up. Thus almost no heat went into your skin. Thus you don’t get burnt and it does not feel that hot!
How hot something is and how hot it ‘feels’ to the touch are two very different things. The letter depends a lot on heat conductance and capacitance.

This makes me think of Aperture Science
