Ther isnt any atmospher in space :)
Is there a temperature difference between light and dark sides of asteroid illuminated by the sun?
Yes, there is. As there is no air in space, temperatures in sunlight can get very high (over 200 C). But in an asteroid shadow (or any shadow in space), the light and heat from the sun is blocked out by the object and temperatures can get to -200 C.
Why isn't convection responsible for heat to earth from the sun?

What is the difference between a rarefraction and a compression?
Rarefied air, for example is air that has been expanded to a large volume without the addition of more air into that volume. It has an extremely low density and lots of space in between molecules. Compression is the opposite. You are 'squishing' that same sample of air (or whatever gas you're talking about) into a very tiny volume, without allowing any to escape. It has a much higher relative density that rarefied air.
Can any sounds at all be heard in outer space?
No, because sound is a vibration of the air and there is no air in space.
What kinds of shapes fly best in space?
