Origin Late Middle English (in the sense 'emanation'): from Latin emissio(n-), from emiss- 'sent out', from the verb emittere (see emit). An emission is literally something sent out, coming from Latin emittere ‘to send out’. An emissary (early 17th century) is a person sent out, and comes from Latin emissarius ‘scout, spy’, from emittere. Emit (early 17th century) is from the same source.
