Absoulute zero is only a theoretical temperature. Nothing can every be made that cold.

Why is it impossible to cool an object below absolute zero?

Absolute zero is when the atoms of all matter will stop moving. It can't be further cooled once they stop.


What is the temperature at which all atomic and molecular kinetic motion ceases?

The temperature is absolute zero, a minimum temperature of matter based on continually reduced molecular motion. (Although absolute zero cannot be attained, it is possible to get very very close, to about 170 billionths of a kelvin.) Absolute zero is approximately -273.15 °C


What is the temperature below which the matter cannot be cooled?

Below Absolute zero or 0k. i.e. (−273.15°C or −459.67° F)

What is the Science and Technology of Zero?

There are no references online to this exact expression, but perhaps it refers to Zero Point Energy which is the energy still present even when matter has been cooled to absolute zero. This energy is locked up within the atom in the form of particle spin and electron orbit momentum as well as more exotic quantum effects. There is speculation that zero point energy and a corresponding zero point field is part of the most fundamental properties of matter and of the universe as a whole.
