Answer:

Sun based energy, as radiation, is continuously moving through space that soaks our planet and its atmosphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radiation that touches base at the highest point of the air is either reflected or retained. Energy from the sun warms Earth's surface, warms the climate, gives vitality to photosynthesis, causes dissipation, drives the climate and water cycles, and powers the sea flows.

70 percent of the incoming energy from the sun is absorbed by the atmosphere and the rest are reflected back to the space.
