The Sun isn't hot, it's actually cool, and NASA has never tested the temp

who told you that? Space is cold breh
The easiest way to see this in action is understanding that space suits are not heated, they are merely insulated to provide a mini version of the insulation the atmosphere of earth would provide.

Space can be either cold or hot do to the nature of how heat absorption works. This is why you can both freeze to death or burn alive on the surface of the same planetary bodies merely depending on whether you are in shadow or direct sunlight.

In alot of movies/cartoons you will see astronauts trying to outrun the shadow of the sun setting on a planet. This is done for dramatic effect, but its largely correct. If the sun is up its hot, if its down, its cold. But on earth we have things like cities that insulate heat and hold it even in darkness. Merely laying a concrete parking lot often raises temperature in the area by several degrees cause the cement stores heat. In space and barren planets there is nothing so once you lose direct contact with sun/star rays the heat immediately begins to dissipate.

(check the temperature section if you want to learn more)
How Space Suits Work

The astronaut provides the heat and the space suit keeps it inside like wrapping a baked potato in foil.

:jbhmm: What's the need for melanin if the sun ain't hot?

Why do I have the ability to transmute sun ray exposure into vitamin D?

Why do plants even grow? :pachaha:

You a lame ass troll, you got that plat tho.

Idk about the 'the sun isn't hot' stuff (considering it is burning)... but melanin blocks radiation. Heat is only one form of kinetic radiation.
This video is short (about 3 mins) andactually shows what melanin does with regard to the sun.

yeah and it absorbs UVB rays and transmutes it into vitamin D. that's apart of the reason why black people have the highest bone density.

Melanin literally does the exact opposite of this.

Yup,

Melanin is created in the dark, not the light

That's why it's dark matter the thing that binds the universe to us

Or junk DNA

The light just gives extra information to DNA receptors , but more information is recepted from total darkness , that's why the moon at nite has more effect on us than the sun

That's why Melotonin puts us in REM, deep sleep in darkness when the brain is most active and vivid dreams
