The Sun is Cold, contrary to popular belief.

I understand what the author is getting at. Heat acts pretty weird in a vacuum

but... you can see sun destined comets and asteroids evaporate / ignite before they reach the corona. The only force in the universe that I know to cause things ignite is heat...

dude, he's talking about the sun, not mercury. Yes, mercury is warm/hot

If you fill a room with just hydrogen and light it.... NOTHING will happen. It will NOT light.


That's true. what's yer point. That's not the sun.

Light and Heat are NOT different types of the same energy other than they are types of energy, but not the same.

Reading comprehension is a requirement for intelligent discussion. You fail. Example was what the temp would be without any interaction of the sun or other sources of energy.

Light doesn't feel hot, until it hits you and is converted into heat. Light is not hot, it's light.


we receive heat and light from radiation.

i have NEVER seen a brick shoot by the sun and burn up.



WOW, you people are all really really really dumb. That you cannot even read the article and comprehend simple things and then the 'arguements' you give are ridiculous.

I haven't finished reading the article, but will later, but it initially makes sense.

Although it may be the author is splitting hairs. The actual temperature of the sun seems to me it may be very cold, but the closer you get to the sun the radiation it emits creates a higher and higher interaction that when it impacts something converts that radiation to a higher and higher temperature.

Electromagnetic field should be an option.

First to comprehend this you need to be as Ill as OP.
Second here is your brick.


That I still try to reply is to retarded for my ass.

This whole thread is:
:retards:

I've seen some nonsense posted in here before...this takes the biscuit by miles...is it 1st April ?

I don't think you do if you say such silly things.

Heat does not ignite things. Heat is a conversion of energy. It is a result of the interaction of an energy source with another energy source.

energy is neither created nor destroyed, only converted.

I really don't see the point you are trying to make. Maybe if you named another source of energy that causes things to ignite on fire I'd be more persuaded

I find it hard to disagree with this information, its all laid out in perfectly easy to understand logic. Naysayers - Have at it, and goooood luck!

See the following response about the temperature of the space at: [link to imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov] . Here is the text from that website:

"The Question:
All I wanted to ask you is that if we put a thermometer in Space with no other light or heat source around and absolutely no background radiation there, what would it read? Would the temperature be really cold or what?
"The Answer:
"Yes, it would be really cold. Temperature measures the energy per "degree of freedom" (i.e., way something can move) of whatever molecules happen to be around. So, it becomes so cold that the molecules stop all together, then this is the "absolute zero" temperature. On the Celsius Temperature Scale (i.e., water freezes at 0, and boils at 100) this takes place at -273 o C.

"We usually use the Kelvin temperature scale, where Zero Kelvin is this "absolute zero" temperature -- or -273 o C. Water freezes at +273 o Kelvin and water boils at +373 o Kelvin.

"If we put a thermometer in darkest space, with absolutely nothing around, it would first have to cool off. This might take a very very long time. Once it cooled off, it would read 2.7 o Kelvin. This is because of the "3 degree microwave background radiation." No matter where you go, you cannot escape it -- it is always there."

Answer by Jonathan Keohane for Ask a High-Energy Astronomer.

Yes, agree. Its also a construct, crystalline, like a mirror, and we're on the other side from home. Like a base, cities.

The Light shining forth is not generated by the mirror, but shines from Family on the other side.

When you light a candle you are burning off thousands/millions of nano diamonds. Yes where the light comes from is a mystery.


Our own cells and pineal emit photons. Our dna.

ok, rub your hands together. Do they get warm? Are you generating heat?

Heat is the conversion of energy. You use energy stored in your muscles, you rub your hands, and convert the energy to kinetic energy. the kinetic energy transfers to the the surface of the hands by friction and then it is transferred to heat.

If you rub your hands ( or sticks ) fast enough, they will light on fire. This is not HEAT starting the fire, but kinetic energy.

Lightning starts fires, not heat.

Radiation starts fires, not heat.

Kinetic energy starts fires, not heat.

Chemical energy starts fires, not heat.

You can start a fire will ALL types of energy, just not heat.

Heat is a byproduct, of the fire, it is a result of the reaction. Heat does not start fires.

There is no point in even reading this stupid article. If the sun was cold then you would be a frozen block of ice. If the sun is cold than why does it feel so damn hot. Stupid coldsuntard.

wow, None of those reactions you mentioned are VOID of heat. Every single one has the byproduct of heat. I still don't see the point you are trying to make.

So what are the onboard temperatures of some of the space craft we've sent, like Voyger?

and light does not travel according to Walter Russell. Read the Universal One.

that is my point. every single one has a BYPRODUCT of heat. Heat does not start the fire, it is the RESULT of the fire. It's very simple.

For us on earth, HEAT is pretty much the last in line for energy. It's the thing we cast off.

You might say we need heat to get warm, but that's not true. We use heat as a medium to slow the rate of energy transfer between our bodies and the surrounding environment. The colder it is, the more heat our bodies have to produce to keep our cells within a living temperature. Just as paper needs to be at 454 degrees farenheit, our cells need to be at a certain temperature to function correctly. If they get too cold you die.

For most interactions heat is a byproduct that gets cast off and eventually out to space.
