There wasn't anything that was hot to cause this effect. The piece of paper wasn't hot, and the small statue was out there for the whole night.

That's certainly not whats happening!

Do another experiment and wrap two thermometers in heat reflective materials. Like mylar (a space blanket, you'll find them in any camping section of a store and they are cheap).

So, you'll have 4 thermometers.

  • One in direct moonlight

  • One in direct moonlight (But surrounded by mylar)

  • One in the shade

  • One in the shade (But surrounded by mylar)

See what happens then.

Thank you! I was already looking for ways to improve upon the experiment.

I'll do it the next full moon!
