Astronomers agree that the space between the stars is not entirely empty, but contains tiny grains of matter and exceedingly thin gases. The grains, said Dr. Spitzer, radiate heat so quickly that their temperature is always near absolute zero (-459° p.). But the gases consist of separate atoms or molecules. For them, heat is velocity. They do not lose it easily by radiation. Dr. Spitzer calculated that the temperature of the thin gas in space might frequently be as high as on the surface of an average star...
