How does the sun heat the planets?

Brock · How does the sun heat the planets?

John I'm just fascinated by your theory about how the temperatures of the planets and their respective climates are moderated by their relationship with the sun. As I understand it, your theory is that the sun's heat isn't thermal - like a hair dryer aimed at the planet - you suggest that the sun and each planet relates magnetically and that's how the warming works? Please elaborate on that? Do you think in a complicated system like Jupiter with all its moons and unique big radiation fields work like that on a smaller scale? What do you think the relationship between the earth and moon is? I can see the wavelengths generated by tides, it's easy to measure the height of the tides, but do the earth and moon moderate each other's climate in other ways?

I don't mean for this to sound too esoteric, I would like to hear more about how you think the matter and energy fits together?

It is interesting to note that even though there is supposed to be global warming we are in the bottom of a sunspot cycle. One would think that we would have more "warming" at the top of the 11 year sunspot cycle.

Here we are at the sunspot minimums and they cry global warming!

The theories are - the Sun is a nuclear/fision reactor or it is electro magnetic and the magnetic fields interacting with the planets warm them.

Maybe it is RF Frequencies such as a microwave oven?

I do not know. As a Ham Radio Operator I prefer the sunspot maximums where the sunspots cause the layers if the atmosphere to reflect radio waves back to earth instead of passing them through to space.

I am interested in all of John's theories myself.

Cheers! Very Happy

Until we get a answer from Mr.Lear i like to jump in and say this :

It is the friction of the magnetic fields that create heat - infrared frequency.
The magnetic fields of the sun interacting with the earths field.

Mr.Lear, can you bring more clarity on this ?

(Edited below part, I was too confuse, i clarified my question.)
What i still cannot understand is this :
Outside the earths gravitational area the sun seems not to be yellow
but redish in colour. I cannot believe this. Is it becouse there is a
change in the emitted frequency from a sun once it enters a
gravity-field from a planet? Or is this nonsense?
