The Moon has no atmosphere, and no current volcanism.
When the surface is exposed to sunlight, it rapidly heats up to as much as 120 degrees C (250 F). But when not in sunlight, it rapidly cools to extremely low temperatures, -150 degrees C or even lower. In some deep craters where sunlight never reaches, lows have been detected of just 25 to 35 degrees K (-250 to -240 C), barely above absolute zero).

∙ 14y agoWell technically the moon is freezing on both sides but if you are referring to the dark side of the moon as the cold side and the hot side of the moon as the side we can see then the reason it's like that is because the side you can see "the hot side" is were the sun's light and heat is at the visible side and the dark side is cold because there is no heat and or light on that side.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoYes.
The estimated temperatures on the moon's surface are:
where the sun shines: 225 F (107 C)
where the sun doesn't shine: negative 243 F (-153 C)
Remember ... there's no place on the moon that's always light or always dark.
Every place on the moon is in sunlight for about 2 weeks, and then dark for
the next 2 weeks.

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIts because the rotation and the revolution period of the moon is exactly the same.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoOn the day side very hot, on the night side very cold.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThat's easy when there's no atmosphere to spread the heat around. Now you can understand
how convenient it is that we happen to have this envelope of air around the earth.

Min 100 o Kelvin
Mean 220 O Kelvin
Max 390 o Kelvin
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoYes it is! The side of the moon facing the sun is blazing hot while the opposite side is freezing cold. Tempature: -274 F to 230 F (-170 C to 110 C).
