Why does the moon have very cold and very hot temperature variations eg, from -190^{\circ}C to 110^{\circ}Ceven though it is at the same distance from the sun as the earth is?

Answers (1)

Earth’s atmosphere is a thin blanket of gases and tiny particles together called air. Temperatures on the moon are extreme, ranging from boiling to cold depending on where the sun is shining. There is no significant atmosphere on the moon, so it cannot trap heat or insulate the surface.
