The density of radiant energy given off by stars and luminous matter in the universe is computed and is found to be 6.91×10-3 erg/sq. cm/sec. as received by the earth. In interstellar space, 106 light years from the nearest spiral nebula, the energy density will be between 2×10-5 and 2×10-4 erg, the former value representing energy from all known nebulae and the latter an extrapolation to the 25th magnitude, further extrapolation being forbidden by red-shift considerations. The latter figures are considerably smaller than the cosmic-ray energy densities found by Millikan and others.
