The sun was incandescent during the summertime.
An incandescent light uses electric current passing through a wire with a high resistance to current flow. That makes the wire very hot and it glows, producing the light. A fluorescent light uses electricity to charge a gas in a tube. The charged gas glows, producing the light. For the same amount of light, more electricity is needed in an incandescent light than in a fluorescent light, but developing and building fluorescent lights required more advanced technology than did incandescent lights.
Thomas Edison invented incandescent bulb
What is more efficient a tungsten light or an incandescent light?
An incandescent light bulb is your common household bulb. It is best identified by the presence of a filament (the thin piece of wire in the center of the glass bulb that glows when turned on.) The incandescent bulb's interior space is a vacuum (all the air is removed) so that the filament doesn't burn up. It produces a warm, slightly gold/yellow light. A "florescent" bulb, on the other hand, has no filament. It works by electrically exiting gas in a long tube creating a cool white light with almost the same color as the sun.
