Unlike the Earth, the moon had no atmosphere to trap in the solar heat. This heat dissipates quickly back out into space after sunset.
The moon has no atmosphere to trap heat, so during the day it absorbs a lot of sunlight and gets very hot. At night, without an atmosphere to retain heat, the moon quickly cools down and the temperature drops significantly.
At night, the moon does not have an atmosphere to trap heat like the Earth does. Without this protective layer, the moon's surface quickly loses heat and becomes very cold as it is exposed to the cold vacuum of space.
The temperature on the moon can vary greatly, from extremely hot during the lunar day (up to 127 degrees Celsius or 260 degrees Fahrenheit) to very cold during the lunar night (as cold as -173 degrees Celsius or -280 degrees Fahrenheit). This is due to the lack of atmosphere to trap heat on the moon's surface.
Well, the dark side of the Moon is where it is nighttime, not the "far" side. Like on Earth, nighttime on the Moon is always moving round and around the globe.When it is night time on the moon and we can see it, it's called a New Moon.When it is daytime on the moon and we can see it, it's called a Full Moon.So, the part of the Moon that is dark or nighttime is very cold . . . say about -238 degrees, F. The part of the Moon that is in daytime is hot. There is no atmosphere on the Moon to hold in heat at night, or filter the Sun's heat during the day.
The moon does not have an atmosphere - on the sunlit side it is excruciatingly hot whereas on the night side of the moon it is bitterly cold.
During the lunar 'night' it is.
The moon gets hot during the day because of the sun's rays hitting it. The moon gets cold at night because there is no atmosphere to hold in the heat from the day.
the moon has no atmosphere so it does not regulate it's temperature. It gets incredibly hot during the day and incredibly cold during the night.
During night on the moon, because of the absence of an atmosphere, the temperature on the moon gets very cold as all of the sun's light is radiated out into space - indeed it can get a lot colder than the Earth can ever get.
The moon has no atmosphere to trap heat, so during the day it absorbs a lot of sunlight and gets very hot. At night, without an atmosphere to retain heat, the moon quickly cools down and the temperature drops significantly.
Yes, it is dark on the moon during the lunar night. The moon experiences about two weeks of darkness during its night, as there is no atmosphere to scatter sunlight and create a twilight effect.
At night, the moon does not have an atmosphere to trap heat like the Earth does. Without this protective layer, the moon's surface quickly loses heat and becomes very cold as it is exposed to the cold vacuum of space.
The temperature on the moon can vary greatly, from extremely hot during the lunar day (up to 127 degrees Celsius or 260 degrees Fahrenheit) to very cold during the lunar night (as cold as -173 degrees Celsius or -280 degrees Fahrenheit). This is due to the lack of atmosphere to trap heat on the moon's surface.
the temutre of the moon is really hot in the day and so cold at night.
because theres no sun only moon at night and god made it that way
During the morning, you can see the sun in the sky, while at night, the moon is visible.
The entire night? Only one night, during the full moon, when the Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. However, the Moon is generally visible in the daytime as well, except for a day either side of the new moon.
