minus-squareNaz@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·11 months agoI was forced to calculate the black body temperature and radiation for the Earth, back in college by hand. I decided for fun to zero out the sun from the equation to see what would happen. My math came out to about -32°C average surface temperature. Earth would become an ice planet. I think you’d uh, need a bit more than a sweater in those conditions 😅
minus-squareNaz@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 months agoI’m just imagining you shuffling out wearing six layers of different colored sweaters on the frozen tundra surface, lmao
minus-squaremeliaesc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 months agoPeople live in those temperatures in places like remote Russia, right? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oymyakon
minus-squareprettybunnys@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoSo. The Antarctic. Roughly. Everywhere. Including the equator cuz that’s not a thing anymore. Are there any places that would be “warm” for any reason if you recall? Like, I assume the oceans would survive until the core stops and the planet truly dies?

minus-squareprettybunnys@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 months ago… so yes, the oceans could remain warm enough to harbor life still.

minus-squareteije9@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·11 months agoit’s because light takes 8 minutes to get from the sun to us. and since gravity also travels at the speed of light our orbit would only change after 8 minutes.
