Look up _radiational cooling_ . Space is in the single digits absolute, and
the atmosphere is pretty much transparent to radiation. Objects will radiate
energy trying to heat up interstellar space, and cool in the process.

You might drop in on some of the amatuer telescope groups. They have the same
problem.

Why on earth are you arguing with this BoZo? He doesn't know **** from shinola,
and has proven it on many occasions and many subjects, yet still he argues with
people that do know, and then tells them that they are not qualified to make
statements on xyz subject.

You only contribute to him overstaying his welcome even longer!
