In lower - mass stars like the Sun, however, there is insufficient mass to squeeze the core to the temperatures needed for this chain of fusion processes to proceed, and eventually the outermost layers extend so far from the source of nuclear burning that they cool to a few thousand kelvins.

The average temperature of asteroids (about 150 — 200 kelvin)-LSB--100 °F to -190 °F] at this distance from the Sun should cause surface ice to sublimate away in a matter of a few years or less, which is inconsistent with the billions of years that Themis is thought to have spent at its current location.»
