The Sun's outer visible layer is called the photosphere and has a temperature of 6,000°C (11,000°F). http://www.solarviews.com/eng/sun.htm At the center of big sunspots the temperature can be as low as 7300 °F (4300 K, 4000 °C). The temperature of the Sun is determined by measuring how much energy (both heat and light) it emits. Montana State University-Bozeman researcher Loren Acton, Eric Priest of St. Andrews University in Scotland and a team of European scientists have discovered that a...21.1.2006 20:18Helsingin kaupunginkirjasto
