Radiative cooling by Outgoing Longwave Radiation is the primary way the Earth System loses energy. The balance between this loss and the energy gained by radiative heating from incoming solar shortwave radiation determines global heating or cooling of the Earth system (Energy budget of Earth’s climate). Local differences between radiative heating and cooling provide the energy that drives atmospheric dynamics. [source OLR]
Free Planet is an advocate of EUT or the Electric Universe Theory and the protection offered by the Solar Wind of our local star, i.e. sunspot and coronal hole activity of our Sun, might save us from much worse things that the galactic centre might throw at us. For example, the Carrington Event of 1859 happened during a solar minimum, so might not (necessarily) have been our-Sun based. We might have just been low on solar-wind protection when some other 'cloud of galactic energy' swept through our Solar System.
Kinda interesting i.e. utterly terrifying new science.
