Heat of earth transferring in space?
Think of Earth as a whole, and suppose the light of the sun, or the sun itself, were to disappear. The Earth is thought of to get cold.
Where does the heat of the Earth go?
Alternate scenario: Your floating in the midst of space, where does your body heat go??
There’s no conduction, or convection, and obviously your body heat doesn’t radiate…
The sun can’t just disappear. That violates the conservation of matter and energy. If it did, I suppose the heat would vanish with it. You body heat stays inside you. It needs a medium to move through and there is no medium in the vacuum of space.

The earth would suddenly cool on the surface because the sun’s radiation is the only source of heat on the crust. The innards of the earth would stay hot, as they have for billions of years as a result of radioactive decay. If you were put into space would be sucked dry and your organs would explode. This is because our bodies are pressurized to fit the air presseure. Also, your body would eventually cool in the same way that the sun does, radiation. Heat is thermal radiation or light in the far infrared spectrum. The sun’s heat obviously makes it through the vacuum between us. Light does not require a medium.

The "heat" that your talking about is like the same heat of when you boil a cup of water, same heat you feel during summer. When the Sun light rays hit the ATMOSPHERE (A MEDIUM of AIR) it heats the air up, hitting the air particles, just like water, the heat is converted to the energy that makes the water so crazyyyyyy (kinectic energy to the particles) so basically it needs a medium, something in which light can hit to heat up, or for its energy to convert. Now you better give me a lot of fuc**** points for your answer bro. Your body will radiate heat, how do you think infra-red camera’s work???? Once you are radiating this heat out, you will cool down, space would be very cold for you at this point. If i place you near the sun, you would heat up, and heat up and you would burn the fu** out unless your a good reflector !

One of your assumptions is wrong.
Heat loss by radiation does work in a vacuum, and radiation will account for loss of heat energy from the Earth in your first scenario, or a human body, in your second scenario.
(Don’t believe humans radiate heat? Do some research on night vision goggles, or infrared motion sensors.)

Your body actually does radiate. In fact, all objects at temperatures above absolute zero will radiate heat. If there is no other source of radiation to keep an object warm, the object will radiate heat until its cool enough such that the incoming radiation equals the outgoing radiation. In space, the heat will leave your body or the sunless Earth as photons and go right into space.
