I IR temped the sky and it is around 18-20F range. So, at night time, the effect of radiant cooling should be equivalent to standing next to a 20F wall. If you could build something that can is perfectly transparent to radiation, but zero conductivity, I wonder if it will cool down to 20F if you leave it under the night sky.
