Today we need to find out the following information about heat transfer and how it effects the atmosphere. Radition, assorption, emissivity, albedo, solar altitude, length of the day, and the heat budget all are concepts that we should consider when finding out they information that we need to no.I just found out that the sun gives off heat that is reflected on the albedo and IR, (earth) and that heat source can effect how the temperature of our payloads change. Its kind of interesting how the sources underneath the payloads have a big effect on the temperature. I'm thinking if the albedo gets taken away, the sun still gives off an reflection, but it has nothing to give its reflection off too. So I guess im going to sit here and do sum more research to get a better understanding.
