you don't understand solar radiation, pretend it isn't a thing, you just pretend those molecules get warmed up by the sun yet the space station is immune. you and your insane false science...
Objects absorb and radiate heat at known rates under known conditions. The space station reflects most solar radiation passively. It also radiates heat. It also has additional heat exchangers that radiate extra heat when necessary.
You are correct. The thermosphere is much too thin to radiate the heat by convection. It is a radiation dominated environment. The ISS heats up by absorbing sunlight and cools down by emitting infrared energy.
yea, just ignore that thermosphere stuff... you'll never win that one.
What is there to ignore?
You don't understand the difference between temperature and heat, therefore the earth is flat.
Makes perfect sense. :-)

lol, radiate heat to what? either the molecules are too far apart to transfer heat... or your explanations are in contradiction.

that is some good science fiction.
