RADIANT ENERGY |

The light that we see, is called visible light or simply, natural light. In layman's terms that visible light that we can see comes from the energy produced by our our sun. In our everyday usage we call it sunlight, but in scientific terms it is also called "radiant energy." Radiant energy can move freely through space as rays or waves. Since sunlight is seen as one continuous stream, the waves of energy emited are often referred to as particles of light rather than as waves. There are different kinds of radiant energies, from radio waves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, x-rays to gamma rays; most of which cannot be seen by the naked eye; yet what can is referred to as our "Visible Light Spectrum." |

Energy from our sun is created when a multitude of individualized atoms from our sun releases positively charged photons of light, creating as it were a natural atomic energy source. An atom is the basic building block of all elements and/or materials of matter; both solid, liquid and gaseous. By way of comparison, a molecule is a combination of atoms; some of which may form complex compounds. When I was growing up, there were 90 known natural atomic elements and science was able to produce an additional 25, making a total of 115 known elements; yet today that number has increased to 118. Atoms are made up of three basic particles: Protons (+ charge), Neutrons (no charge) and Electrons (- negative charge); the combination of which, would determine what element we are dealing with. |

Since our sun is still in the process of producing usable photons of light, the energy produced is enough to sustain all life on this planet. Except for minute changes, the sun is as potent now as it ever has been and will be able to emit energy billions of years from now as well. Not only do we need light to see, but to sustain the delicate balance of our ecological systems; from the smallest microbe to the largest land, water and air masses that surround us. All mineral, plant and animal life here on this planet would virtually cease to exist without the light from our sun. |
