Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through some material or through space.
Since there is Vacuum( empty space) between earth and the sun, Light travels using radiation....
Hope it helped! :)

Is there radiation in space storms?
Well actually there is radiation. Because space is so cold that when the storm forms they both make radiation. Just like hot air and cold air making a tornado.
Do radiation detectors pick up all of the radiation in the air?
Not necessarily. Different kinds of radiation detectors pick up different kinds of radiation. Also some radiation is of so little importance, that detectors are not designed to pick it up. An example here is UV light, which is actually low level ionizing radiation. One more thing: Radiation doesn't require air to travel. A quick example: The sun's radiation reaches earth, yet there is no air in space for it to travel through.
What does Light Amplification by Stimulating Electro-magnetic Radiation stand for?
Laser is actually an acronym. The full form given in the question is very close to the actual full form of laser, which is: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
Are X-rays similar to beta rays?
Though both are forms of ionizing radiation, an X-ray is a form of electromagnetic radiation, while a beta ray is actually a beta particle. The beta particle is a form of particulate radiation, and the beta particle could be either an electron or a positron.
What does a level-7 nuclear crisis actually mean?
a level-7 nuclear crisis is when immense levels of radiation are on a singular location
Which of these can radiation travel through?
conductors According to the A+ cirriculum it' actually space. Radiation can travel through a space. Jesus loves you!:)
Can radiation cure certain disease?
Radiation can cure cancer through what is known as radiation therapy. This is a process where the cancerous cells and genes are damaged.
Is there any radiation of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki left nowadays?
Actually, it has been decades without radiation that came from the atomic bombs.
What are six types of EMR?
there are actually seven types of EMRradio waves, microwaves, terahertz radiation, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays & gamma rays
What are the two ways to transfer energy?
There are actually three, conduction, convection and radiation.
What is the energy received by the earth from the sun in the form of radiation?
It may be called by different names, for example:* Solar energy * Solar radiation * Electromagnetic waves * Light (actually this is only part of the radiation we receive)

Do mobile phones cause more radiation while charged?
No - the only time they emit radiation is when they're actually in use making or receiving a call.
Which biome has the highest net radiation budget value?
It's actually the rain forest because that is the biome closest to the equator, meaning that it has a net radiation budget surplus (more solar radiation is absorbed than reflected/re-emitted as infrared radiation), unlike the biomes closer to the poles which will have a net radiation budget deficit (more infrared radiation is re-emitted/reflected than solar radiation that is absorbed).
