Answer: Thermal radiation

Step-by-step explanation:

Thermal radiation is the transfer of thermal energy by waves that can travel through air or even through empty space. This is how thermal energy from a fire is transferred to your hands and how thermal energy from the sun is transferred to Earth. Everything radiates thermal energy, even objects that aren't very warm.
