NASA researchers are planning to create the coldest spot in the known universe inside the International Space Station. âWeâre going to study matter at temperatures far colder than are found naturally,â says Rob Thompson of JPL. Heâs the Project Scientist for NASAâs Cold Atom Lab, an atomic ârefrigeratorâ slated for launch to the ISS in 2016. We aim to push effective temperatures down to 100 pico-Kelvin.. A new ScienceCast video explores the strange quantum realm of NASA's new Cold Atom Lab.

Encephalomalacia is the softening or loss of brain tissue after cerebral infarction, cerebral ischemia, infection, craniocerebral trauma, or other injury. The term is usually used during gross pathologic inspection to describe blurred cortical margins and decreased consistency of brain tissue after infarction.
