Within the Solar System, the average temperature on: • Pluto is around -235°C, • Neptune around -220°C, • Uranus -210°C, • Saturn -184°C, • Jupiter -153°C. • The temperature on Mars varies between about -87°C and -5°C, with an average of around -46°C. • The lowest natural temperature on Earth (recorded at Vostok, Antarctica in 1983) is -89°C; the highest surface temperature on Earth (recorded at Al 'Aziziyah, Libya in 1922) is 58°C; the mean overall temperature on Earth is 14°C. Planet Biography. Planets Surface Temperatures. Why temperatures differs from planets to planets? In general, the surface temperature decreases as the distance from the sun increases. Venus is an exception because its dense atmosphere acts as a greenhouse and heats the surface above the lead's melting point of 880 ° F (471 ° C).

Planet: Saturn 1: - Saturn's rings are only a few hundred million years old. 2: - The Spitzer infrared telescope recently discovered another ring around Saturn. 3: - The rings of Saturn are formed by bright particles of water ice. 4: - But, the new Saturn ring is composed of dark dust particles, not water ice, and extends from 8,000,000 miles to 12,000,000 miles from the center. 5: - The planet Saturn has a lower density than water. Then, if placed in water it would float. 6: - The moon Titan of Saturn has hundreds of times more oil and natural gas than all known reserves on Earth. 7: - Saturn is not only the planet with rings, Neptune also has its own ring system.

Sun 1: - The Sun was approximately 10 times brighter than it is today, after forming from its interstellar gas cloud. 2: - The Sun produces so much energy, that every second the nucleus releases the equivalent of 100 billion nuclear bombs. 3: - The strongest color light emitted by the sun is green, but we see the combination of all the colors of the sun as white light. 4: - The average temperature on the surface of the Sun is 6,000 ° C. The brown dwarf star CFBDSIR 1458 10b is not hotter than a cup of coffee. 5: - The center of the Sun is about 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million ° C). 6: - Our Sun can be gigantic but it still loses 360 million tons of materials every day. 7: - Every second, the Sun pumps more than one million tons of materials into space through the solar wind (electrically charged particles). 8: - The Sun takes about 220 million years to make a revolution of the Milky Way. 9: - If the Sun became a Black Hole, it would ...
