radiation
one energy that thermal energy can transfer into is radiation energy. It can transfer into that because of the electromagnetic waves.
Energy transfer takes place by convection (the movement of hot air or other fluids due to diferences in densiity), conduction (transfer of heat through contact - caused by collisions between adjacent particles), or radiation (the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves such as light or infra-red rays).Radiation requires matter to create and absorb the EM waves, (i.e. you need a hot object to give off the IR waves) but the waves themselves can travel through a vacuum, so do not require matter to transfer energy.
Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of a fluid, whether liquid or gas.
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium, so they can transfer through a vacuum, or empty space.

Convection because some examples of this is through liquid and/or gas.
Because an electric signal is much easier to transfer over long distances than a sound is.
It is because that kinetic and heat energy are movement. Nuclear energy is electromagnetic waves that are made of protons, which are objects that move, not simply movement.
