Thanks Iceman. I respect your thought process but why wouldn’t the same insulator effect be in place in the shade of the sun. It doesn’t seem right that it would only happen in the shade of the moon and NOT the shade of the sun.
Because the moon gives very nearly no heat, while the sun gives a ridiculous amount of heat, so whatever is gained by the insulator effect, or, for that, matter, the heat radiating from the insulator itself, if, by far, lost from not gaining all of that sun heat.
Imagine you had a perfect insulator that exactly maintains your temperature while it's on. Your thing start lukewarm. During the day, things get warmer. A thing without the insulator will be warm, one with will be lukewarm, so the uninsulated is warmer. During the night, things get colder, moonlight or not, so a thing without the insulator will be lukewarm, one with will be cold, so the insulated is warmer.
