The answer is somewhat simple: The moon and stars are always somewhere in the sky, but we can’t always see them ... certain kinds of light, like wavelengths in the blue spectrum.

Here's when the June Strawberry Moon is, why it's called that and why this month’s full moon will look extra large in the Northern Hemisphere.

Infrared goggles are out, replaced by contact lenses that turn wavelengths too long for our eyes into those we can see, while letting ... green is triggered by the shortest infrared radiation ...

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, sought to see if they ... surpasses any green we can normally perceive. It’s not about discovering a new wavelength, but about unlocking ...
