The Invisible Electromagnetic Spectrum

You are practically blind to most of the universe. Your eyes only detect a tiny sliver of

reality called visible light, but there is a massive continuous spectrum of invisible waves

flying around you right now. It is called the electromagnetic spectrum.

We are talking everything from giant radio waves and microwaves to X-rays and deadly gamma rays.

They are all transverse waves made of vibrating fields that zoom through empty space at the speed of

light. So while you are busy looking at colors from red to violet,

just remember you are missing out on an entire invisible light show happening right in front of

your face.
