solar system's coldest on moon

Astonomers have found the coldest spot in our solar system and it may be a little close for comfort. it's on our moon right nearby NASA's new lunar reconnaissance orbiter is making the first Complte temperature map of the moon it found that at the moon's south pole it's colder than far away Pluto the area is inside craters that area permanently shadowed so they never see sun. "it's sort of like a faint glow and that's your only source of hear," said David Paige a university of California scientist who is part of the NASA team. "right here in our own backyard are Difintely the coldest things we've seen in real measurements." temperatures there were measured at 397 degrees below zero. that's just 62 degrees higher than the lowest temperature possible Pluto is at least a degree warmer even though it is about 40 times farther away from the sun.
