igneous rocks
Geothermal energy is used to generate electricity, for heating and cooling buildings, and for various industrial processes such as desalination and agriculture. It is a renewable and sustainable energy source that relies on the heat stored beneath the Earth's surface.
Radiation from space does not significantly contribute to heating the surface or atmosphere of the Earth. It involves the transfer of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves traveling through the vacuum of space. This process is responsible for cooling objects that are exposed to outer space.
Igneous rocks are formed through two processes: cooling and solidification of molten rock (magma) on or beneath the Earth's surface (extrusive), and cooling and crystallization of magma deep beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive).
Plutonic rocks form beneath the Earth's surface from slowly cooling magma, while volcanic rocks form on the Earth's surface from rapidly cooling lava. Plutonic rocks have larger crystals due to the slow cooling process, while volcanic rocks have smaller crystals or glassy textures due to rapid cooling.

Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface. When magma cools and solidifies, it forms igneous rocks. The cooling process can occur either slowly beneath the surface (intrusive igneous rocks) or rapidly on the surface (extrusive igneous rocks).
Slow cooling magma far beneath Earth's surface is called intrusive or plutonic igneous rock. This process allows minerals to grow larger due to the slower cooling rate, resulting in a coarse-grained texture. Examples include granite and diorite.
because it is cooling
It is called geothermal energy.
earth surface
When molten material from beneath Earth's surface cools and hardens, it forms igneous rocks. Igneous rocks can be either intrusive (formed underground) or extrusive (formed on the surface), depending on where the cooling and hardening process occurs.
Slow cooling of magma far beneath earth's surface has a phaneritic texture (this means that the individual crystals are large enough to be seen with the naked eye).
Igneous rock is produced by the cooling and solidification of molten rock. This process can occur both beneath the Earth's surface, forming intrusive igneous rocks, and at the surface, forming extrusive igneous rocks.
