This lecture covers the energy balance of planets, focusing on the Earth. It starts with an introduction to astrophysics and the solar constant, followed by an analysis of the energy balance at ground level. The instructor explains how different factors, such as reflected light and absorption, contribute to the overall energy balance of the Earth.
