Let that run for a while...

Time is only passing at 1 hour per second.

Is the temperature at least dropping?

No worries... In trying it myself... I almost wonder if the temperature should drop faster than it is. If you place the body so close to the sun that the time step drops, it does seem like it's not melting.
