This exotic ice phase forms at extreme pressures reaching 219 Gigapascals and stays solid at temperatures exceeding 2,000 degrees Celsius or more than 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit. Laboratory experiments successfully recreated these conditions to observe the phase transition, pointing to the existence of superionic ice deep within the ice giant planets. The discovery provides crucial insight into the physical makeup and behavior of
