Weather on planets across the solar system:

Think it’s cold outside? Try Pluto at -375°F!

Temperatures in our solar system vary dramatically. The Sun's core burns at an astonishing 27 million°F (15 million°C), while its surface is a relatively cooler 10,000°F (5,500°C).

Surprisingly, Venus, not Mercury, is the hottest planet, with a scorching mean surface temperature of 867°F (464°C) due to its thick atmosphere trapping heat.

Meanwhile, Earth enjoys a mild 59°F (15°C) on average, though its extremes range from 134°F (56.7°C) in Death Valley to a bone-chilling -128.6°F (-89.2°C) in Antarctica.

As we move farther from the Sun, temperatures drop sharply — Mars averages -85°F (-65°C), while the gas giants, like Jupiter and Saturn, have mean atmospheric temperatures of -166°F (-110°C) and -220°F (-140°C), respectively.

Uranus and Neptune are even colder, with Uranus averaging -320°F (-195°C) and Neptune reaching -330°F (-200°C), accompanied by supersonic winds.

Beyond Neptune, Pluto holds the record for the coldest world in our solar system, with a mean surface temperature of -375°F (-225°C). Despite its icy exterior, Pluto might harbor a subsurface ocean.

As sunlight takes just eight minutes to reach Earth but over five hours to reach Pluto, the outer reaches of our solar system experience perpetual cold. So, the next time you complain about the weather, just remember—at least you’re not on Pluto!
