Because of heat energy. No heat, no motion. Or no motion, no heat. At absolute 0 nothing moves.
Best,

P.S. The initial heat, or energy, or motion came about because of the big bang. |
Good answer Pat, but what are we really measuring when we measure temperature? Energy?
My naive thoughts tell me that if we make motion the absolute, and we build a framework which is trying to equalize its matter in motion, degrees of temperature takes on the roll of spatial degrees of freedom of the fundamental material building blocks, and thermodynamics become spatialdynamics, whereby the potiential for motion (temperature difference) between two massive bodies is equivalent to the spatial to particle ratio/density between them.
Absolute zero then becomes massive formations of matter which contain only plank volumes of space, and an absolutely hot system is a symmetrical arrangement of all of its matter, whereby the max amount of motion potential is possible.
In a closed universal system, the total motion potential (total temperature/energy) would then be equivalent to the total volume of unoccupied space, thus conserving it, as it also is now finite and absolute, along with the matter and motion within it.
