The natural greenhouse effect is the absorption of infrared radiation by our atmosphere, which warms our planet.

温室效应是指大气外辐射保持地球温暖。

There, they absorb infrared radiation and convert it to visible green light.

在那里，它们外辐射，并将其转化为可见的绿光。

Scientists discovered in 2009 that, when visible light is shined on them, Egyptian blue molecules emit infrared radiation — the long-wavelength light that our eyes can't detect, but can be felt as heat or be picked up by certain cameras.

2009年科家们发现，当可见光照耀到色素上时，埃及蓝分子会发出外辐射——我们的眼睛无法察觉的长波长光，但可以感受到热度或是被某种相机捕捉到。

The Terra and Aqua satellites carry instruments called spectroradiometers which detect the infrared radiation, that is, the heat, radiating from the Earth's surface.

Terra 和 Aqua 卫星携带着名为 “分光辐射度计” 的仪器，它测量的是外线辐射，就是地球表面辐射的能量。

Known as infrared radiation, the camera processes infrared radiation and converts it into a visual image, even in the pitch black.

被称为外辐射，该相机对外辐射进行处理，并将其转化为视觉图像，即使在漆黑的环境中能看到。

That, in turn, depends on the amount of infrared radiation falling on it from whatever it is pointing at.

反过来，这又取决于从它指向的任何地方落在它身上的外辐射的数量。

For example, water, ozone, and nitrous oxide are all electrically lopsided, so they all absorb infrared radiation.

例如，水、臭氧和一氧化二氮都是电不平衡的，因此它们都外辐射。

At the same time, it traps the infrared radiation — aka heat —radiating out from Earth's sun-warmed surface, keeping us from freezing solid at night.

同时，它捕获了从地球上被太阳热表面发出的外辐射——就是热量，使我们在晚上不至于冻成冰块。

Even though many different kinds of molecules can absorb infrared radiation, the vast majority of our atmosphere can't, because it's made of nitrogen and oxygen, which don't get lopsided even when they are vibrating — they're too symmetric.

即使许多不同种类的分子可以外辐射，但大气层绝大部分不能，因为它是由氮气和氧气组成的，即使它们在振动时不会失衡——它们太对称了。

But that  infrared radiation energy has more disorder than the original sunlight.

但那外辐射的能量比原始的阳光具有更多的无序性。

Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide absorb infrared radiation, trapping some of the re-radiated heat.

二氧化碳等温室气体外辐射，捕获部分重新辐射的热量。

Yeah, so the near infrared radiation from sunlight is actually excellent for our gut microbiome.

是的，所以太阳光中的近外辐射实际上对我们肠道微生物群非常有益。

Even though many different kinds of molecules can absorb infrared radiation, the vast majority of our atmosphere can’t, because it’s made of nitrogen and oxygen, which don't get lopsided even when they are vibrating - they’re too symmetric.

尽管许多不同种类的分子可以外辐射，但我们大气中的绝大多数都不能， 因为它是由氮气和氧气组成的， 即使它们在振动时不会倾斜——它们太对称了。

In 2004, the ultra-deep field showed objects 13 billion light-years away, and in 2010, HST used infrared radiation to make the extreme deep field of objects that existed just 480 million years into the history of the universe.

2004年， 超深场显示了距离地球130亿光年的天体，而到了2010年， 哈勃太空望远镜利用外辐射技术， 捕捉到了宇宙历史仅4.8亿年时存在的极端深场天体。

Smrekar and colleagues used an instrument on the European Space Agency's Venus Express spacecraft, which is in orbit around Venus, to monitor infrared radiation at a specific wavelength that penetrates the planet's cloud cover.

Smrekar 及其同事在欧洲航天局的金星快车航天器上使用了一种仪器，，它在金星周围的轨道上，监测特定波长的外辐射，它穿透了地球的云层。

In 1859, he analysed how infrared radiation, specifically, was absorbed by different gases, and found that gas produced by burning coal, which contained water vapour, methane and CO2, absorbed almost all the heat.

1859年，他分析了外辐射是如何被不同气体的，并发现由燃烧煤炭产生的气体，其中含有水蒸气、甲烷和二氧化碳，几乎了所有的热量。

And because according to the second law of thermodynamics, there's gonna be a lot of infrared radiation that is gonna be emitted as a consequence of extracting energy from the star.

因为根据热力第二定律，在从恒星提取能量的过程中， 将会释放出大量的外辐射。

The silver layer reflected away the incoming sunlight while the sandwiched polymer allowed the device to shed heat in the form of infrared radiation.

银层反射掉入射的阳光，而夹在中间的聚合物则使设备以外辐射的形式散发热量。

Euclid is a wide-angled telescope with a  600-megapixel camera, designed to capture visible light and infrared radiation from over a  3rd of the sky.

Euclid 是一款广角望远镜， 配有 600 兆像素的摄像头，旨在捕捉超过三分之一天空的可见光和外辐射。

Or it could be this unique atmosphere that blocks much of the visible light and only lets an infrared radiation.

或者，可能是这种独特的环境阻挡了大部分可见光，仅允许外辐射通过。
