I want to know everyone’s favorite color…by their wavelength. If you need help, here you go:
My personal favorite is right around 400 nm. And it’s entirely for aesthetic reasons.
So what is yours and why?
(Yeah, I know…everyone is going to pick some non-optical frequency. And yes, you have to stick to photons. Maybe we can do sonic waves another week…)
656.28 nm. Hydrogen-Alpha solar filter.
Not surprised. Someday, I’m going to steal that telescope from you.
So why is it that you responded here, but everyone else responded on FB? :-)
