Скачать или смотреть Temperatures of Every Planet in Our Solar System

The temperatures of the planets in our solar system vary widely due to their distance from the Sun, atmospheric composition, and other factors. Here's an overview of the average surface temperatures (or cloud-top temperatures for gas giants) of each planet:

1. Mercury

Average Temperature: 167°C (332°F)

Range: -173°C (-280°F) at night to 427°C (800°F) during the day

Mercury has no significant atmosphere to retain heat, so its temperature fluctuates drastically between day and night.

2. Venus

Average Temperature: 464°C (867°F)

Venus has a thick atmosphere composed mainly of carbon dioxide, creating a runaway greenhouse effect that makes it the hottest planet in the solar system.

3. Earth

Average Temperature: 15°C (59°F)

Earth's temperature is moderated by its atmosphere and the presence of liquid water, making it suitable for life.

4. Mars

Average Temperature: -65°C (-85°F)

Range: -125°C (-195°F) in winter to 20°C (68°F) in summer

Mars has a thin atmosphere, so it cannot retain much heat, leading to cold temperatures.

5. Jupiter

Average Temperature: -145°C (-234°F) at the cloud tops

As a gas giant, Jupiter has no solid surface, and its temperature decreases with depth in its atmosphere.

6. Saturn

Average Temperature: -178°C (-288°F) at the cloud tops

Saturn, like Jupiter, is a gas giant with no solid surface, and its upper atmosphere is extremely cold.

7. Uranus

Average Temperature: -224°C (-371°F) at the cloud tops

Uranus is the coldest planet in the solar system due to its distance from the Sun and lack of internal heat.

8. Neptune

Average Temperature: -214°C (-353°F) at the cloud tops

Neptune is similar in temperature to Uranus but receives even less sunlight due to its greater distance from the Sun.

Key Notes:
Gas Giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune): These planets do not have solid surfaces, so their temperatures are measured at the cloud tops.

Terrestrial Planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars): These have solid surfaces, and their temperatures are measured at the surface.

Extreme Variations: Mercury and Mars experience significant temperature variations due to their thin or nonexistent atmospheres.
