If heat rises then how come space is so cold?

>earth highest point in known universe confirmed

Heat is just Jewish propaganda.

Probably because there's a LOT of space between objects, there's actually a theory called "big freeze".

Is that why so many of them have risen to the top o' society after being in the oven?

A) Heat does not rise. It radiates. Hot air rises above warm air. Warm water rises above cold water.
B) Space has no significant medium to heat up. However, if you were exposed to the Sun, you would feel the effects of its heat very much so. For instance, the sunlit surface of the Moon is over 200°F (100°C), whereas the unlit side cools to -150°F (-100°C).

low pressure, play with an elastic band and hold it to your lip to feel the heat/cold

this is literally grade school physics
>>
The "heat" you are refering to is a component of gas with a similar density as the gas its surrounded by. If that component is somehow isolated and given additional heat, in the form of temperature increase , and is allowed to change volume, its density decreases and it rises.

Only if it's colder than it is outside. Wut?

>>8579817
can moon bases be powered by temperature differentials?

Heat doesn't "rise" because it prefers to go up. You need to think why warmer atoms go upwards on earth to understand why your theory makes little sense.

Think about what energy (heat) does to say, a tank full of oxygen. If you put some warmer oxygen in, the warmer will go up because there is more kinetic energy in those oxygen atoms. Since gravity is in play, the atoms with less kinetic energy (the cooler ones) will fall lower because they're not bouncing around randomly as much.

But because atoms prefer to have lower energy, the kinetic energy will disapate into the cooler (lower energy) part of the oxygen tank mix. (2nd Law of Thermodynamics). The hotter oxygen atoms will therefore, not continue rising into space infinitely.

Hope this helps answer your question. Also:

I do not know. Stirling engines are feasible, but don't produce much power. Straight-up solar power would still be best I think, though you'd have to account for 14.5 days of night per month.

I bet its liberating to be as dumb as OP. Able to believe the earth is flat and shit like whatever the fuck this is ^. The masses really are completely retarded and operating under the delusion they have a worthwhile opinion on anything except burger flipping or whatever the idiot masses mostly do these days.

Simply put, the universe isn't a fucking box.
