Acute myocardial infarction is the medical name for a heart attack. Heart attacks occur when the flow of blood to the heart becomes blocked. They can cause tissue damage and can even be life-threatening.
The highest temperature ever recorded on Earth was 136 Fahrenheit (58 Celsius) in the Libyan desert. The coldest temperature ever measured was -126 Fahrenheit (-88 Celsius) at Vostok Station in Antarctica. 1  Javascript must be enabled to use Cool Cosmos. 2  Learn how.
A subsequent measurement of â88.3 Â°C (â126.9 Â°F; 184.8 K), on August 24, 1960, held the record until a temperature of â89.2 Â°C (â128.6 Â°F; 184.0 K) was measured at the Soviet Vostok Station, on the Antarctic Plateau, on July 21, 1983. This remains the record for a directly recorded temperature. A 2009 study estimated that under exceptional climate conditions similar to those recorded at Vostok in 1983, temperatures higher on the plateau around Dome Argus could potentially drop as low as â95 Â°C (â139 Â°F; 178 K).
