There is no universal rule stating that colder celestial bodies always rotate around warmer ones, but there are notable correlations between temperature and rotation that arise from physical principles. Let’s break this down from conventional astrophysics and then consider how the "Electric Universe" perspective might interpret it.

===== 1. Temperature and Mass Correlation: - In general, larger and more massive celestial bodies (like stars) generate more heat due to nuclear fusion, gravitational compression, and energy release. - Smaller bodies (like planets, moons, and asteroids) tend to be colder since they lack sustained internal fusion or significant heat sources. =====
# Orbital Dynamics: - Celestial bodies orbit due to gravitational interactions, which are independent of temperature. However, because stars are typically hotter than planets or moons, we often observe that colder bodies (planets, asteroids, etc.) orbit around warmer ones (stars).
# Rotation Speed and Temperature: - The rotation of a body is influenced by its formation history, mass distribution, and external forces (such as tidal locking). - In some cases, fast rotators can generate more internal heat due to friction, tidal heating, or magnetic interactions. - Tidal locking can slow down a body's rotation over time, leading to thermal variations (e.g., the Moon has a cold, permanently shadowed side).

===== The Electric Universe model suggests that electromagnetic forces play a dominant role in celestial mechanics. From this perspective: =====
# Charge Differential and Temperature: - If celestial bodies carry different electric potentials, plasma interactions could contribute to heating effects. - A charged, rotating body moving through a cosmic plasma could experience electromagnetic braking or acceleration, potentially influencing its thermal state.
# Plasma Sheaths and Heat Distribution: - In an electric model, the Sun could be viewed as an anode (positively charged), with planets acting as cathodes or varying charge differentials. - The temperature variations could arise not just from nuclear fusion but also from electrical discharge effects within plasma currents (e.g., Birkeland currents).
# Orbital Mechanics Influenced by Electric Forces: - If electric fields and currents shape planetary motion, colder bodies may preferentially orbit warmer ones due to charge attractions or plasma dynamics. - This could introduce additional torques affecting planetary rotation, which might explain some anomalies in rotation speeds and tilt variations.

===== While mainstream astrophysics explains temperature and rotation dynamics through gravity, angular momentum, and thermodynamics, the Electric Universe theory proposes additional effects from electromagnetic interactions. However, a strict rule that "colder bodies must orbit warmer ones" is not universally applicable in either framework—temperature differences are a consequence of various physical processes rather than a fundamental cause of orbital structure. =====
