Its the thermal energy that the Earth emits. Radiation is essentially another word for heat. There is also solar radiation which is simply the heat from the sun. The Earth actually emits far less thermal energy than what is taken in from by the sun and absorbed into the atmosphere. On the other hand there are planets like Jupiter whose surface temperature is mostly comprised of heat from thermal energy instead of solar radiation.

What type of radiation do nuclear weapons emit?
Nuclear weapons emit nuclear radiation, with gamma radiation being the most common and dangerous.
Does phone really have radiation that is harmful to humans?
Cell phones do emit a type of non-ionizing radiation.
When does the earth emit terrestrial radiation?
Terrestrial radiation refers to heat emitted from the earth's atmosphere and surface.
At what temperature does Lithium-6 emit radiation?
Any material will emit blackbody radiation at any temperature. Lithium 6 will never emit ionizing radiation.
What type of radiation does a nuclear reactor emit?
A safe reactor don't emit a significant or dangerous quantity of any radiation. But in the core of the reactor all the types of nuclear radiations are emitted.
What type of energy does the earth emit?
natural infrared radiation, and man-made radio energy
What type of radiation do nuclear weapons emit?
Nuclear weapons emit nuclear radiation, with gamma radiation being the most common and dangerous.

Any material will emit blackbody radiation at any temperature. Lithium 6 will never emit ionizing radiation.
What do black holes emit that could allow them to be detected from the earth?
Black holes does emit radiation, but they cannot be detected from earth. We use gravitational lensing to "see" the black holes.
Why elements in gaseous state emit radiation?
They do not! Most gases do not emit radiation.
Do all light waves emit radiation?
Light waves do not emit radiation, light waves are radiation.
What happens when a star becomes a black dwarf?
Then it will not emit any more radiation - except that it will eventually re-emit any radiation it receives, especially the cosmic background radiation.Then it will not emit any more radiation - except that it will eventually re-emit any radiation it receives, especially the cosmic background radiation.Then it will not emit any more radiation - except that it will eventually re-emit any radiation it receives, especially the cosmic background radiation.Then it will not emit any more radiation - except that it will eventually re-emit any radiation it receives, especially the cosmic background radiation.
