How Cold Is Space Celsius
As you travel away from the sun the temperature of an object in space plummets.
How cold is space celsius. The surface temperature of pluto can get as low as 240 celsius just 33 degrees above absolute zero. This is actually the temperature of cosmic microwave background radiation which is spread throughout the universe. As you probably know space is already very very cold roughly 2 7 kelvin 270 45 celsius 454 81 fahrenheit.
Far outside our solar system and out past the distant reachers of our galaxy in the vast nothingness of space the distance between gas and dust particles grows limiting their ability to transfer. The temperature in outer space is generally 2 73 kelvin 270 42 celsius 454 75 fahrenheit. Venus 880 f 471 c earth 61 f 16 c mars minus 20 f 28 c jupiter minus 162 f 108 c saturn minus 218 f 138 c uranus minus 320 f 195 c neptune minus 331 f 201 c pluto minus 388 f 233 c this graphic shows the average temperatures of various destinations in our solar system.
When sunlight hits the moon s surface the temperature can reach 260 degrees fahrenheit 127 degrees celsius. When the sun goes down temperatures can dip to minus 280 f minus 173 c. In empty interstellar space the temperature is just 3 kelvins not much above absolute zero which is the coldest anything can ever get.
In certain areas of space however the temperature. The earth is about 93 million miles away and we see temperatures between 185 kelvin 126 degrees fahrenheit or 88 degrees celsius to 331 kelvin 136 degrees fahrenheit or 58 degrees celsius.
