How does the earth stay at a constant temperature?
Earths core temperature is sustained by fissile materials slowly breaking down over time. This energy is dissipated to space and will eventually run out. Much like Mars, Earths core and mantle will become solid and Earth will lose its magnetic field. Earths surface temperature is a function of many variables. Among those variables are; The previously mentioned magnetic field limits solar radiation to the thermosphere, Greenhouse affects of diffuse materials in the atmosphere reflect heat back to the surface, And convective currents circulate heat between regions of different temperatures.
