Analyzing Astrophotography Filters- The SpectraWizard captures the Orion Nebula
After analyzing the spectrum of Sirius and Betelgeuse, the SpectraWizard decided to take a shot with astrophotography. His journey takes him to the Great Orion Nebula where he creates a superimposed image of the nebula using bandpass filters. He uses spectroscopy to...Why Turtle Safe Lighting Matters for Sea Turtle Survival + An Interview with FWC Experts
Why Turtle Safe Lighting Matters for Sea Turtle Survival + An Interview with FWC Experts Artificial lighting along coastlines is a well-documented threat to sea turtle populations. Species such as the loggerhead sea turtle and green sea turtle rely on natural light...2026 April Lyrid Meteor Shower Spectroscopy with StellarNet
The Lyrid meteor shower and spectroscopy intersect in the study of meteors’ chemical composition and physical properties. When a meteor from the Lyrid shower enters Earth’s atmosphere, it heats up and ionizes, creating a bright streak of light....Find a Rainbow Day Spectroscopy
The Science Behind Rainbows Rainbows form when sunlight interacts with water droplets in the atmosphere. As light enters a droplet, it refracts (bends) due to the change in medium from air to water, which slows down the light waves. Once inside the droplet, some of...Solar Simulator Prototype with Halogen and Light-Emitting Diode Sources
