Many places in the world have scorching temperatures nowadays. On the other hand, these are less hotter compared to the warmest places on Earth.
NASA used the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) to provide the earthly temperatures of these places for years. It has two satellites and 36 various spectral bands (groups of wavelengths. One of these detects the thermal radiance, which is the amount of infrared energy emitted by the land surface, according to NASA. These hottest places ever have something in common. They mostly in deserts with little soil moisture or vegetation. The energy of the sun hits straight into heating the ground. They are also tending to be at lower elevations, according to IFL Science. The 5 hottest places ever in the world are the following:
1. Dasht-e Lut Desert, Iran
According to NASA, the temperatures in Dasht-e Lut Desert in Iran could get as high as 159.3 degrees Fahrenheit. This desert is the hottest place in five of the years. It is completely desolate and uninhabited.
2. Australia's Badlands, Queensland This region has scorching temperatures of about 156.7 degrees Fahrenheit. It is at its hottest during drought.
3. The Flaming Mountain, China
The hottest place in China is the Flaming Mountain, which is situated at the edge of Taklimakan Desert and the Tian Shan Mountain range of Xingjian, China. It had temperatures as high as 152.2 degrees Fahrenheit in 2008.

5.Kebili, Tunisia
The temperatures in Kebili, Tunisia could get as high as 131 degrees Fahrenheit. It is considered as a desert oasis in Tunisia.
