Astronomical images formed from data taken at each wavelength will be displayed. The instruments used to collect astronomical data will be illustrated. In addition, information about wavelength, frequency, energy will be presented. Since the Orion Constellation is an easily recognized constellation, it will be used as the basis for astronomical image displays. The region is diverse and interesting at many wavelengths.
Visible light makes up a fraction of all electromagnetic energy.
Wavelength and frequency are defined. Exhibit Group 2. The eye is a natural detector of light. A display may show how the eye works. For other wavelengths of EM radiation different strategies must be developed.
