has a temperature of a staggering 18 million degrees Fahrenheit (10 million degrees Celsius). That's around 1,800 times hotter than the surface of the sun...

I assume this isn't temperature in the usual sense we think of it, as while individual particles may be hot as hell, they are disbursed thinly enough to not pose a heat problem to say a spaceship. Thus, maybe this needs a more practical unit of measure of temperature that factors in density. (It may be a tricky radiation hazard, though.)
