The ozone gas absorbs UV rays. It is present as ozone layer.These atmospheric gases, also referred to as greenhouse gases, absorb solar radiation and cause a rise in temperature.
The layer of gas molecules in the atmosphere that is bombarded with rays from the sun is the thermosphere. It is the outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere where solar radiation impacts the molecules, leading to high temperatures and the presence of the ionosphere.
Other greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide absorb infrared radiation (heat) that is emitted from the Earth's surface, trapping it in the atmosphere. This trapped heat contributes to the warming of the atmosphere, similar to how the ozone layer absorbs and traps incoming ultraviolet rays from the sun.
No, Earth's atmosphere does not block all UV radiation from space. It does absorb a portion of the UV radiation, particularly the most harmful UV-C rays. However, UV-A and UV-B rays are able to penetrate the atmosphere to some extent and reach the Earth's surface.
It uses something called the "greenhouse effect." Basically, "greenhouse gases," like carbon dioxide, are in the atmosphere. These gases trap and reflect the heat shining from the sun. They keep bouncing the sun's rays back and forth, which increases the temperature of the atmosphere.
Mercury has no atmosphere. Cosmic rays from the sun burn the gases off.

Yes. Our atmosphere blocks cosmic and solar gamma rays.
The ozone clouds block the UV rays. These are harmful radiations of the sun.
The sun's rays are scattered by gases in the atmosphere. They also refract through water droplets in the lower atmosphere to create rainbows.
ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, gamma rays......
due to the lack of atmosphere blocking the solar rays.
Solar Bronze blocks out 61-78% of heat.

Yes, this shade blocks 90% of incoming UV rays.

This trapped heat contributes to the warming of the atmosphere, similar to how the ozone layer absorbs and traps incoming ultraviolet rays from the sun.
Microwave rays can pass through the Earth's atmosphere, as they are a form of electromagnetic radiation that is not absorbed or blocked by gases in the atmosphere. This is why microwave communication systems like satellites are able to transmit signals through the atmosphere.
