Sentences with phrase «temperature than an asteroid»

When I asked you on my blog how the Earth could have a hotter temperature than an asteroid at the same distance from the Sun.

Not exact matches

As a star much more massive than the sun contracts to the size of an asteroid — or even smaller if it becomes a black hole — it creates unimaginable densities, temperatures, and energy.

In addition, the data show that the temperature of the innermost ring imaged by the vortex is around 100 Kelvin (or minus 173 Celsius degrees), a bit warmer than our asteroid belt.

We also can conclude from this that the global surface temperature trends will likely be higher in the coming years than the ones observed since 1998 (assuming no major volcanic eruption, impact by a killer asteroid, or nuclear war).
