Blog 6: Hiding in the light

Blog Post 6: “Hiding in the light”

In this episode, Neil DeGrasse Tyson discusses light. Neil DeGrasse Tyson empathizes how many important astronomical discoveries were made using light. He talks about specific experiments which would eventually lead to the invention of the telescope. Tyson introduces the nature of light and how, through prisms, light is detracted to give us the different colors via the visible spectrum. NDT also discusses how eventually studying light would give us a means to discover the different composition of heavenly bodies and give us a means to track their journey through the Cosmos

I did not really enjoy this episode because the subject seems pretty boring to me. Overall it was very informative though.
