Death Valley – Hottest Place In The World

World


Death Valley, California has re-claimed the title of the hottest place in the world, a record previously held by El Azizia, Libya. The Libyan record high temperature 136 degrees was deemed as being an unreliable measurement and Death Valley’s 134 Degrees stands as the hottest temperature ever record on Earth.

Adventurer George Kourounis explorers this harsh oven of a place as part of an episode of Angry Planet.

  1. Calling death valley the hottest place on earth when we cannot record temperatures on and near the deserts in the equator due to harsh climates is not fair in my opinion.

  2. That whole area should be flooded with seawater brought in with siphons to provide massive evaporation to add snowpack to the Rockies that melts and refills Lake Powell and that refills Lake Mead. You Californians like to ditch about climate change but you think shutting down industry and cars is some answer. Israel has FIVE desalination plants making over 50% of all their drinking water. How many desalination plants does California have? And they need to be built on the east side of the San Andreas Fault. How? Flood Death Valley. Gravity flow…….no pumps needed only valves and siphons.

  3. I last visited Death Valley in November 1993 and it actually properly rained for about an hour. During the winter yes, but it's still quite a rare event.

  4. People misunderstand that surface temperature is not the same as ambient (air) temperature. In fact, can be double. The ambient temperature may have been 134F, but the surface temperature was close to 289F (i.e. the camcorder was 143C = 289F). Chris Hadfield, x-commander of the International Space Station, stated that while working outside the space station the shaded part of his suit was -140C (-220F) but the sun lit part of his other shoulder was +150C (+302F). The space station would be about the same distance to the sun as the earth, so this would explain why direct sunlight is about the same, and can have devastating effects if you are not prepared on earth. Wearing a hat would help. And don't forget that ambient relative humidity is likely near "0%" in Death Valley. Wear a good space suit for the walk, so your body holds onto its own moisture as much as possible and you don't have to carry so much water to perform the hike: 32L (8.5 gallons = about 71 lbs).
