Look up _radiational cooling_ . Space is in the single digits absolute, and
the atmosphere is pretty much transparent to radiation. Objects will
radiate energy trying to heat up interstellar space, and cool in the
process.

You might drop in on some of the amatuer telescope groups. They have the
same problem.


Why on earth are you arguing with this BoZo? He doesn't know **** from
shinola, and has proven it on many occasions and many subjects, yet still he
argues with people that do know, and then tells them that they are not
qualified to make statements on xyz subject.


I've quit doing so here. Mx is impervious to experience, and science.

You only contribute to him overstaying his welcome even longer!
