Quartz Space Heater

Obviously you are just a troll (we already knew that) or just plain stupid enough to lie about it.

In theory yes, if the vacuum is total as in space.

However, the standard Crooks Radiometer has a partial vacuum. The vanes turn much faster than if there was a total vacuum and they advance away from the black side. The black side is hotter than the white or silvered side. See:

Obviously you are too stupid and egotistical to take just a second and LOOK at it (and apologize).

What's really strange is the idea that you're expecting that to change reality, and bring into existence a from of radiation that does not exist.

That's insane. I used to live in a 1200 sq-ft 100yr-old wood framed

2-story house in the Canadian prairies. -40 winters, older furnace with cast-iron heat exchanger. Our average monthly heating bill was just a bit over $100 CAD.

It isn't just warm things that radiate photons, it is everything, except all things also absorb photons, depending on temperature differences and other factors.

But I am curious about what the special thing that CO2 is supposed to have, it is a molecule with atoms vibrating or moving in some way, but those movements are not involved in the sensible heat measured, only the velocity of the entire molecule relative to neighbor molecules can transfer "heat".

"Heat" is not a thing in itself, it is only the motion of the molecules and how fast and how hard they hit when they bounce off other molecules.

Of course monatomic atoms are considered to be "molecules" in some ways.

I understand "Black Chrome" coatings on copper sheet or foil will absorb solar energy very well and not emit in short wavelengths, but chances are that anything that emits long waves will also absorb long waves, and CO2 has a very small specific heat compared to water vapor, and there must be a lot of difference in the latent heat of vaporization between the two molecules.

Joe Fischer I drive the right lane.

Closets are usually easy to heat though.

Yes, you are correct in the direction. I was in error and stating the incorrect concept. Been awhile.
