1) You multiplied to get 0.03927 Wm² (funky units!) instead of
   dividing to get 637 W/m².
2) I was using a cube geometry, not a sphere. So our numbers are going
   to differ by a substantial amount.
3) You should not be starting from absolute zero, but from room
   temperature.
4) Look at my original calculation, where part of my calculation is
   T_f^4 - T_i^4 since I am not starting from absolute zero.
