How are all eight planets different?

All eight planets are identical, except for their mass, diameter, oblateness, distance from the sun, orbital speed, rotation period, revolution period, orbital eccentricity, presence or absence of atmosphere, composition of atmosphere, depth of atmosphere, atmospheric pressure at the surface, presence or absence of natural satellites, number of natural satellites, presence or absence of rings, number of rings, surface temperature, composition of the solid body, magnetic field, density, inclination of the rotation axis to the orbital plane, and inclination of the orbital plane to the ecliptic. Aside from that, they're pretty much all the same.

How does the absence of an atmosphere affect the Moon's surface temperature?

Well, atmospheres help absorb heat, so it traps in heat from the sun to make it warmer, so the absence of an atmosphere on the moon affects it by making it cooler because without an atmosphere, there is no way to trap in and keep heat.
