Radiation or particles that reach Earth from space
Our answer book holds 44 answers to “Radiation or particles that reach Earth from space”, from the first thing anyone would say to names almost nobody would think of. Most people go straight for Cosmic Rays, Sunlight or Solar Wind, so those barely lift the rocket. It is a fairly short list: only 3 answers sit in the two rarest tiers, so reaching one takes real knowledge.
Space questions reward anyone who remembers the names behind the famous missions, not just the missions themselves. You will find it in stage 24, “Cosmic Forecast”, of the Cosmos mission. The first stages of every mission are free, and later stages come with the full mission.
