That doesn't give me a good sense because I have no idea how Pluto's average surface temperature compares to typical on-Earth temperatures that I have experienced. This gives me a better sense:
26 K = -247.2 C
- shitgoose 13y agoIs that with the windchill?

- officemonkey 13y agoNo atmosphere, therefore no wind, thus no windchill.

- fallinghawks 13y agoOh, so something like Canadian winter. ;)
- lutusp 13y agoIMHO you're better off thinking in Kelvins. Room temperature is 295 Kelvins, the cosmic background radiation (the leftover glow of the Big Bang) is 2.7 Kelvins, and between the stars, far from any particular star, an object naturally cools to the universe's background temperature of 2.7 Kelvins.
