Radiation can pass through any phase of matter.

Examples:
Light, radio, heat, and X-rays, all pass through glass (solid),
water (liquid), and air (gas) very easily.

(Moreover, I would be remiss if I failed to point out in addition that
microwave radiation passes through meatloaf and coffee with only
partial attenuation due to absorption.)
