The Sun’s Energy
• The Sun releases a huge amount of energy into the space around it.
• It’s the same amount of energy as 100 billion tons of TNT exploding every second!

Electromagnetic Radiation• Electromagnetic
radiation is one way of moving energy from one place to another place
• Energy moves from the Sun to the earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation

Is electromagnetic radiation harmful?
• It depends…• Radio, microwave,
infrared, and visible usually aren’t harmful, but can be if the radiation is very strong
• Ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays are more harmful

We can’t see it
• But the radiation is still there.
• There is Electromagnetic radiation from radio antennas, cell phone towers, the Sun, and other sources in this room.
• You, like this dog, are a source of infrared electromagnetic radiation!
