It is my understanding that on earth, a hotter object surrounded by colder air will decrease in temperature because the faster moving atoms in the hotter object are repelled by the slower moving atoms in the colder air. This isn't worded very well, I hope you know what I mean.
By what mechanism does an object decrease in temperature in a vacuum, if it does so at all?
