1 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:08,089 sorry radiance is the energy hitting the 2 00:00:12,530 --> 00:00:10,530 Earth from the Sun we have different 3 00:00:14,690 --> 00:00:12,540 kinds of solar irradiance we have heat 4 00:00:16,700 --> 00:00:14,700 solar irradiance which is the infrared 5 00:00:18,740 --> 00:00:16,710 radiation we have the visible light 6 00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:18,750 which is what we can use to see and what 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:21,090 makes plants grow we also have 8 00:00:25,759 --> 00:00:23,010 ultraviolet light which is absorbed by 9 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:25,769 our ozone layer and we also have x-ray 10 00:00:30,019 --> 00:00:28,050 and extreme ultraviolet which is quite 11 00:00:32,810 --> 00:00:30,029 harmful and thankfully absorbed much 12 00:00:34,819 --> 00:00:32,820 higher up in our atmosphere Eve is the 13 00:00:37,459 --> 00:00:34,829 extreme ultraviolet variability 14 00:00:40,160 --> 00:00:37,469 experiment it will measure the solar 15 00:00:42,049 --> 00:00:40,170 irradiance in the extreme ultraviolet is 16 00:00:43,970 --> 00:00:42,059 very short wavelengths that are absorbed 17 00:00:46,580 --> 00:00:43,980 completely by the Earth's atmosphere and 18 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:46,590 never make it to the surface they also 19 00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:49,410 are quite deadly and can hurt people and 20 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:51,809 electronics that are out in space they 21 00:00:55,790 --> 00:00:53,489 cause the atmosphere to heat up and 22 00:00:58,490 --> 00:00:55,800 expand and bring down spacecraft and 23 00:01:01,340 --> 00:00:58,500 also it causes radio communications to 24 00:01:03,229 --> 00:01:01,350 be interfered with Eve will measure the 25 00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:03,239 solar irradiance at these wavelengths 26 00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:05,760 very rapidly about every 10 seconds 27 00:01:10,580 --> 00:01:08,310 allowing us to use that for warning 28 00:01:12,710 --> 00:01:10,590 people about the dangers of flares for 29 00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:12,720 putting them into the models that tell 30 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:13,710 us what's happening to the atmosphere 31 00:01:19,340 --> 00:01:16,650 and to also allow people that are doing 32 00:01:20,780 --> 00:01:19,350 radio communications and navigation to 33 00:01:22,609 --> 00:01:20,790 know that there could be a problem with
