Unfortunately, Earth's atmosphere blocks almost all wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. |
The electromagnetic spectrum is composed of a range of radiation frequencies from radio waves to X-ray and gamma waves. |
Most known radiation dangers occur at the high end of the electromagnetic spectrum, and include X-rays and gamma rays. |
It isn't hot enough to radiate UV rays but it does radiate in the visible and infrared parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. |
Terahertz light is a little-studied realm of the electromagnetic spectrum between microwave and infrared light. |
Each color in this image represents a different region of the electromagnetic spectrum, from X-rays to infrared light. |
