Celsius

The degree Celsius, or simply °C, is a unit of temperature named after the astronomer Anders Celsius. The celsius temperature scale was designed so that the freezing point of water is 0°C and the boiling point is 100°C at 1 Earth atmosphere.

On 8 December 2145, as the Icebreaker sent down a second unmanned probe to explore the ocean on Europa, a reading on the control panel showed the temperature rising steadily from 130°C to 140°C and beyond before the probe was suddenly lost.
