Belligerent refers to a tendency to hostile behavior: A belligerent reporter badgered the politician. Bellicose describes a warlike or hostile manner or temperament: Madison, far from being pushed into war by a bellicose Congress, had to drag his own hesitant party into it. (Garry Wills).
How cold is it in space? That question is sure to prompt the geeks among us to pipe up with â2.7Kâ. For 2.7 Kelvin, or 2.7 degrees above absolute zero, is the temperature produced by the uniform background radiation or âafterglowâ from the Big Bang. But hang on.
When calculating the temperature in space, it is important to understand that most estimates must take into account the varied makeup of space. Outer space is usually considered to be the portion of the universe that is almost entirely empty and, from the point of view of Earth, officially begins at an altitude of about 62 miles (100 kilometers) above sea level.
