Sure it’s a balmy 15,512°C, but it’s really the solar wind burns that get ya.

The surface of the sun is around 10,000°C; that solar wind would be positively chilly.

It's more like 6000°C. But the corona's much hotter, and the solar winds originate from there. The temperature of the solar wind is estimated to be 100,000° - 800,000°, depending on the type (slow vs fast).
