Document Summary
Calculating the energy of the black body. The earth is warmed by solar radiation coming in. Solar constant radiation coming in reaching the side of the atmosphere, Shadow area: the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth, it is the area which gets cut out form the earth. If anything emits as a black body it emits as a stepfan boltzman constant. It absorbs only the ir passing through it. If an alien in mars or anywhere can see as if ir is coming from the atmospheric layer. If you are looking from earth you can see as if ir is coming down from the atmospheric layer: this is the green house effect. They can only see the tempreture coming from the atmos. The reason is the region between the 800 1200 region. No through that analogy talk about mars and venus. We have to consider what happens by the ir by the second layer: climate model, worlds biggest models.
