Belligerent refers to a tendency to hostile behavior: A belligerent reporter badgered the politician. Bellicose describes a warlike or hostile manner or temperament: Madison, far from being pushed into war by a bellicose Congress, had to drag his own hesitant party into it. (Garry Wills).
How cold is it in space? That question is sure to prompt the geeks among us to pipe up with â2.7Kâ. For 2.7 Kelvin, or 2.7 degrees above absolute zero, is the temperature produced by the uniform background radiation or âafterglowâ from the Big Bang. But hang on.
Distance and light exposure are the prime temperature determinants for all objects and points that lack atmosphere and are suspended in near-vacuum. Near Earth. The average temperature of outer space around the Earth is a balmy 283.32 kelvins (10.17 degrees Celsius or 50.3 degrees Fahrenheit). This is obviously a far cry from more distant space's 3 kelvins above absolute zero.
