How the Universe Affects Us The Sun – U.V. radiation

The Sun’s Radiation Solar wind…creates the Aurora and disrupts Satellites Infared…Heats the earth Visible Light…is converted to heat U.V….Absorbed by the ozone layer

The Greenhouse Effect

Ozone Depletion Chemicals are destroying the ozone layer to so more UV rays are getting through UV radiation damages DNA and causes skin cancer UV rays also damage plants, especially plankton such as algae

Aurora Borealis

Solar Wind High E particles concentrate at the Poles because they are trapped by our magnetic field They collide with air molecules and release light energy It takes 2 days for the solar wind to reach earth Solar wind disrupts our satellites We could possibly use it to “sail” across our universe

The Moon
