The IR thermometer works by looking at the spectrum of infrared light being emitted by an object (blackbody radiation). When you aim it into the sky, it's just going to collect all of the infrared li

To put it another way, the accuracy of your meter depends greatly on the emissivity of the object it's pointed at. In theory, to get an accurate non-contact measurement, you must know and correct for

I had a Harbor Freight one that did the same thing. Apparently there is little to no infrared (or whatever radiation it's looking for) from space. -Wayne _____________________________________________
