Electromagnetic radiation can travel through "empty" space. Depending on the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation, we call it "radio" or "microwaves" or "heat" or "light" or "UV" or "X-rays" or even "cosmic rays" - it's all different frequencies of EM radiation.
The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency; in fact, the frequency times the wavelength is the constant "c", the speed of light.

Which is a bundle of energy that can travel through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves or radiation
Does heat travel through empty space by conduction?
No, there can't be conduction in empty space. Heat may travel through empty space through radiation, though.
What is energy that can be transferred through empty space?
heat or light radiation can travel through a 100% vacuum
How does the sun' energy travel to the earth?
Electromagnetic radiation... i.e., light. Electromagnetic Waves A+
In what ways can energy travel through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as infrared and visible light
Can travel though empty space?
Yes, you can travel through empty space. The Sun, Earth, moon, satellites, space ships, atoms, and subatomic particles all travel through empty space. Greater than 99.999% of matter is empty space.
What is an energy that can travel through waves and move through empty space?
Gravitational (-GmM/r) and Electromagnetic (hf=hc/r) Energy.
Energy can be transferred through empty space by?
Energy can be transferred through empty space by radiation. Joule is the SI unit of energy.
Why can sound waves not travel through empty spuce?
Sound waves cannot travel through an empty space because an empty space is usually a vacuum.
