Why is it important to us on Earth that light can travel through space?
It is because light can travel through space that Earth can get sunlight. Without sunlight life on Earth could not exist.

How does the sun give its energy to the Earth when space has no gravity?
The sun gives its energy to the Earth through electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of sunlight. Gravity doesn't play a direct role in the transfer of energy from the sun to the Earth. Space may be a vacuum, but light and energy can still travel through it.
Does the sunlight reaches the Earth in 7 minutes or there is another exact value?
Sunlight reaches the Earth in approximately 8 minutes and 20 seconds, not 7 minutes. This is the exact amount of time it takes for light to travel from the Sun to the Earth, covering a distance of about 93 million miles.
Why do you feel vibrations before you hear it?
Vibrations travel faster through a denser medium like a solid than sound waves do in air. This means that you may feel the vibrations before the sound actually reaches your ears.
Does heat travel through a vacuum?
Actually heat cannot travel through vacuum. sun emits radiations (obviously electromagnetic radiations.) which needs no medium to travel. hence these radiations travel through space and reaches earth where it interacts with atmosphere. when these radiations fall on media like air, water land etc. the radiation is converted into heat energy. Thus it is clear that heat from sun is converted into radiations which travel through space and reaches earth where it is converted to light.
Average temperatures are lower near the poles because sunlight strikes the ground at an angle?
Near the poles, sunlight has to travel through more atmosphere to reach the surface, which reduces the amount of heat that reaches the ground. Additionally, the angle at which sunlight hits the Earth's surface near the poles is more oblique, spreading the energy over a larger area and leading to lower temperatures.
What are the three are the main influences on the input of solar energy to the Earth?
The three main influences on the input of solar energy to the Earth are the distance between the Earth and the Sun, the angle at which the sunlight reaches the Earth's surface (known as the solar angle), and the amount of atmosphere the sunlight has to travel through before reaching the Earth's surface. These factors determine the intensity and distribution of solar energy received by different parts of the Earth.
