---- las propiedades de la luz visible como fem y como particula nos puede decir tanto como las demas frecuencias electromagneticas, solo es cuestion de realizar la lectura correcta con el equipo correcto. Esto es, la luz de las estrellas que nos llega es afectada durante su viaje por diferentes sucesos, estos, supongamos como si proyectaramos la luz de una linterna contra una pared e interpusieramos la mano. En la pared veriamos la luz sin la porcion que ocupa la mano, o sea sin los fotones desviados por la mano, de la misma manera las radiaciones que medimos del espacio nos pueden dar una lectura de lo que "vieron" a su paso hasta nosotros. Pensemos en un haz de laser, desde el momento en que los fotones comienzan a moverse son afectados por su interaccion con el entorno que los rodea y esa informacion queda impresa en ellos por su cualidad de onda y particula. Como onda transportan energia y como particula tienen masa y las dos son mensurables. La luz visible nos muestra lo que nos rodea debido a que los objetos reflejan una porcion de esa luz, las frecuencias del espectro que no son "absorbidas" por un objeto, por lo tanto solo hay que "leer" las frecuencias reflejadas para saber cuales faltan y determinar a que pertenece. La luz de las estrellas nos llega con millones de años de atraso y quizas ya no esten alli pero podriamos analizarla a medida que nos llega de su recorrido para saber que eventos fueron afectandola a su paso y usarla asi como un espejo y ver que "vio." ----

What are the eletromagnetic radiation bands called?

Electromagnetic radiation bands are known as the EMR spectrum.


What are the visible bands in cardiac and skeletal muscle called?

Visible bands in cardiac and skeletal muscle are called striated muscles.


A metamorphic rock with visible layers or bands is said to be what?

Visible layers or bands in metamorphic rock is designated as 'foliation' and the rock is said to be 'foliated'.


How many bands of light does a landsat image have?

It has 7 bands, only 3 of which are in the visible.


Why is most of the solar radiation reaching earths surface in the range of visible light?

It's not! The heat (infrared) energy reaching Earth's surface is many times more than the energy in the visible range ... the visible is practically negligible in comparison, and then you have the energy in all the other electromagnetic bands in addition.


Do astronomers use only visible electromagnetic radiation to study space?

No. Modern-day astronomers do not use only visible electromagnetic radiation to study space. They use additional bands of the electromagnetic spectrum to study space, including radio, microwave, infra-red, ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma ray. Darn! That's just about everything.


What are different types of radiation other than visible light and what are there uses?

The names we give to a few other wavelength-bands of electromagnetic radiation are: -- radio -- microwave -- heat -- X-ray -- gamma ray After you've spent some time here on Earth, you'll get used to these terms, and you'll quickly understand what we do with these categories of radiation.

What are the two forms of electromagnetic radiation that experience the least atmospheric opacity?

There is a spectrum of electromagnetic radiation varying from small wavelengths (high frequency and energy) like gamma rays and x-rays to visible light (in the mid to lower end of the spectrum) to long wavelengths like radio waves etc.


What kinds of technology are used to observe stars today?

A wide variety of telescopes that are sensitive to different bands of electromagnetic radiation (e.g. radio, microwave, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays, gamma rays) and subatomic particles (e.g. neutrinos, muons, cosmic rays). Most of these telescopes are on the surface of the earth, but some are on artificial satellites because the earth's atmosphere blocks those bands of electromagnetic radiation, and neutrino telescopes are buried in deep salt mines to shield the detectors from undesired radiation that would cause false detections.


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.
