Hot strongly interacting matter once filled the universe, but in the last 14 billion years it has only been briefly produced in relativistic collisions of heavy ions. Its properties can be extracted from a quantum field theory using supercomputers. Now a collaboration of experiments and theory is beginning to test this connection accurately, I will describe what has been found, the context, and what we hope to gain in the next few years.
