Scientists have used different techniques (balloons and rockets) to access to the information contained in this radiation, but the pioneering of this new frontier has not been free of dangers. The Sun is our main source of UV radiation and its description occupies the first two chapters of the book. The Earth is the only known location where life exists in a planetary system and therefore where the interaction of living organism with UV radiation can be tested through different epochs and on distinct species. The development of the human technology has affected the natural shield of ozone that protects complex lifeforms against damaging UV irradiation. The formation of the ozone hole and its consequences are described, together with the possible contribution of UV radiation to recent climate changes. Finally, we will discuss the potential role of ultraviolet light in the development of life on bodies such as Mars, Europa and Titan. The Solar System is not isolated; other external sources can contribute to the enhancement of the UV radiation in our environment. The influence of such events as nearby supernovae and gamma-ray bursts are described, together with the consequences to terrestrial life from such events. 0aPHYSICS. 0aONCOLOGY. 0aASTRONOMY. 0aASTROPHYSICS. 0aASTROBIOLOGY. 0aCLIMATIC CHANGES. 0aENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION.14aPHYSICS.24aASTROPHYSICS.24aASTROBIOLOGY.24aASTRONOMY.24aCANCER RESEARCH.24aCLIMATE CHANGE.24aEFFECTS OF RADIATION/RADIATION PROTECTION.1 aHanslmeier, A.eauthor.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer eBooks08iPrinted edition:z9781402037269 0aAstrophysics and Space Science Library ;v33140uhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1007/b136268zVer el texto completo en las instalaciones del CICY  aZDB-2-PHA  2ddccER  c36510d36510  00102ddc40708LEaCICYbCICYcELd2025-10-06l0o523.01r2025-10-06 08:44:59w2025-10-06yER
