By the sun - 99.99% (and maybe a few more 9's) of the electromagnetic radiation we see on earth comes from the sun. A tiny bit comes from extra-solar space, and we produce a bit from light bulbs, radio transmitters, etc.

All EM radiation is made by a charged particle undergoing acceleration.

Is electromagnetic radiation made of photons or the perpendicular oscillation of magnetic and electric fields?

Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is the oscillation and movement of magnetic and electric fields which are perpendicular to each other. This is the way in which electromagnetic radiation is propagated. Photons are another term for higher energy EMR, and it could also be argued that photons make up some forms of electromagnetic radiation.


What is made up of electromagnetic radiation?

Electromagnetic radiation is made up of electric and magnetic fields oscillating together in the form of waves. These waves can vary in frequency and wavelength, giving rise to different types of electromagnetic radiation such as radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays.
