    I saw a movie called Absolute Zero. It was when it reached zero in every form of metric (or customary, I don't remember) temperature. A sudden ice storm hit Miami and everyone except for a few people died. It wasn't a scary movie but the though of that happening is.....

    Ok, many people on here are not getting the idea here, so pardon me but I am going to the basics of heating/cooling.

    When an object begins to cool the molecules slow down, and as something heats up they begin to move faster. Now with the thought of an absolute zero it is the place where motion on a sub atomic level stops, there is only one place it needs to be to stop any lower won't matter cause you can not have a negative stopping force here.

    Now as I will state again. It will be possible to cool to that point, but it will be a very very small area, because it is virtually impossible to freeze a large area. If/when it is reached I do not think much will happen a state of cryolysis will occur where all motion will stop in time. Other than that, I don't really think much will happen since it is just the point where particles cease to move. As for how ever said that -273 is absolute zero that is false, that is just -1 degree celsius, because 1 degree celsius = 274 Kelvins which has been reached.

    And liquid Nitrogen. I have sprayed that on my arm before and my arm did not turn into dust, it froze over for about 1 min. then thawed out. This is an irrational thought, liquid nitrogen will not create an absolute zero, or else we couldn't contain it.

    when something DOES reach absolute zero though, it would/should prett mu ch dissapear, but i think that even when they "stop" moving, there will still be a VERY small amount of movement that isnt visible to the human eye, or the mechanical one.
