Because Saturn is 890.8 million miles from the sun, and its thick and turbulent atmosphere like Jupiter, it only gets about 1/83 the sunlight of Earth.

∙ 9y agoThe brightness of the sun is mostly dependent on its apparent size or area from a certain distance. The sun is about 10 times farther from Saturn than the Earth, so its diameter and brightness should be about 1/10π (~0.031831) that of the brightness from Earth.

Why black colour absorb and radiate more heat?
The objects is black when no light reflect from it, hence, it absorb light very well. And at the same time, what can absorb light very well would radiate heat very well .
