Apparently, there's a world about 33 light-years away that's mostly water ice at about 250 degrees Celsius (or about 480 Farenheit). A few details are available in this CBC.ca science news article...

I'm missing something, since water ussually liquifies if pressure is applied, since ice is less dense than water (which is why it floats to the top. Does the behavior hange at higher pressures or is it something else?
