How did it not melt everything in sight?

Mr. Deeney, can we try to fry an egg on that?

They don't know how they did it.
Always reassuring.

I wonder if we're messing with stuff we shouldn't be messing with in the first place.

They must have a superthermometer that can withstand the heat.

One thing that puzzles scientists is that the high temperature was achieved after the plasma’s ions should have been losing energy and cooling. Also, when the high temperature was achieved, the Z machine was releasing more energy than was originally put in, something that usually occurs only in nuclear reactions.
Sell your big oil stocks.
Once again, as it should be, the mid-East is a big ugly worthless desert.

Ok, stupid questions of the day...
What kind of a thermometer measures that much heat?
How can that much heat be generated without vaporizing everything in the vicinity?

These scientists are going to be a huge hit when it comes to outdoor grill season.

Don't touch - the plates are very hot.

"How did it not melt everything in sight?"Because there is a great difference between high temperature and great heat. Let's suppose you were in an unheated cabin and you had your choice between a large tub of water at 180 degrees set on the floor in the middle of the room or a single candle burning at 800 degrees. The tub of water possesses more heat but the candle burns at a higher temperature. The experiment in the article probably describes a heat source on the molecular level, great temperature, little heat.
