Quantum computers can get colder than deep space — Here's how they stay

TL;DRQuantum computers need extreme cold to work because heat ruins their accuracy.

Why it matters: Cooling challenges are a major engineering barrier to making quantum computers practical and scalable.

Heat disrupts the accuracy of a quantum computer, so the computer needs to be kept as cold as possible. Which is extremely cold, it turns out.
