The Indian space craft orbiting the moon (Chandrayaan I) heated up because of the moon and the sun lining up with the space craft.
For once I thought this was something which happened due to some malfunction, But it was just good old radiation heating. What a disappointing headline! It is not like it was a race car on a circuit that heated up due to excessive performance measures.
