What energy travels through empty space to warm the earth?

Since we are talking about warming, what you are looking for is heat or more properly thermal energy, But there is a problem as thermal energy cannot travel through empty space as this form of energy is defined in terms of the vibrations of matter at the atomic/molecular level.What travels through empty space and when it arrives on earth produces these vibrations in matter that will warm the earth is electromagnetic radiation, primarily radiation in the infrared and visible light bands. The energy in this radiation is electromagnetic in nature and is cyclicly exchanged back and forth between the electric and magnetic fields of the wave.

How does the energy of the sun reach earth and moon and other planets?

Radiation if that's the answer you're looking for... Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves (or light energy) traveling through space (but not outer space, just space like in the air).
