Why exactly do you think there is UV radiation coming from the sun?
Assuming this is a sincere question:
The sun emits a wide spectrum of radiation due to the nuclear fusion reactions occurring within it's core. This includes everything from low energy non-visible radio waves and thermal radiation to high energy X-rays and gamma rays. Fortunately for us, the Earth's electromagnetic field and atmosphere (especially the ozone layer) protects us from all but a tiny sliver of ionizing radiation or we wouldn't be here to talk about it.
Also, hello again AES_Enjoyer, hope you've been well :)
Isn't most of that radiation blocked by the outer layers of the sun, though? Like, sure, there is a non-negligible amount of high energy photons escaping, but the overwhelming majority of the radiation comes AFAIK from blackbody radiation from the plasma at the temperature of the surface of the sun?
And yo, mate, how's it goin?
Because the spectrometer says so, mainly. Why?
Hahaha that's a good one
