Man has managed to create the hottest temperatures ever, here on earth. An atom smasher called the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) has reached the hottest man made temperature making it 250,000 times hotter than the center of the sun.

The feat was accomplished by slamming atoms together at near light speed. This stew of subatomic particles formed a primordial plasma and scientists believe that this is the material that filled the universe just seconds after the Big Bang 14 billion years ago, hitting about 7.2 trillion degrees Fahrenheit.
