Sentences like this are one reason I love science
As long as the temperature exceeded about 10 trillion degrees Celsius, the quarks and gluons acted essentially independently. Even at lower temperatures, down to two trillion degrees, the quarks would have roamed individually--although by then they would have begun to feel the confining QCD force tugging at their heels.
Wow, they still act that way even when it is as cold as 2,000,000,000,000 degrees celcius!
