People who witness UFOs often comment that they shine a
bright lights onto the ground in a single color:
blue.
Now science may have made
some
progress in finding out what's so important about blue light.
The world turns out to be
a lot
stranger than we
used to think it
was.
Human eyes can only see light in a very small region of the
electromagnetic spectrum. For us, visible light corresponds
to a wavelength range of 400 - 700 nanometers in a color
range of violet through red. Blue light has a wavelength of
about 475 nm, one of the shortest in the light spectrum. The
human eye is more sensitive to short-wavelength light, which
produces "cool" tones like blue or green, as opposed to long-
wavelength light, which produces "warm" tones like yellow
and red.
Blue is an important color in several major religions. In
Hinduism, it symbolically represents the fifth, throat chakra,
and many gods are depicted as having blue-colored skin.
While contactees most often see beings with gray skin, little
beings with cobalt blue skin are also commonly sighted.
In Judaism, the Israelites were commanded to put blue
fringes, tzitzit, on the corners of their garments. In Islam,
verse 20:102 of the Qur'an describes evildoers whose eyes
are glazed with fear as being filmed over with a bluish tint.
Psychics who read auras see a blue auras around the heads
of spiritual people.
In 2007, researchers embedded a fiber-optic able into the
skull of a mouse on the left side, which reprogrammed the
right ("creative") side of its brain. When an intense blue
light
was shone into the cable, the mouse began turning in
counterclockwise circles, and didn't stop until the light was
turned off. It turned in counterclockwise circles because the
electrode was implanted on the left side of the brain, so
that's the direction the mouse took. Had the implant been
imbedded in the right side of the brain, it would have turned
clockwise circles.
More news about light: If we have broken the speed of light,
it may mean that the universe does not work as we thought.
Two German scientist believe that an experiment that they
were conducting into the quantum tunneling effect has
resulted in faster-than-light movement.
If faster-than-light movement is possible, it could mean that
devices that actually look backward in time might be possible,
although physical time travel would not be made easier. If it
is possible to accelerate a stream of electrons beyond the
speed of light, they would also be outside of time, and
therefore it might be possible to use them to look into the
past much like an electron microscope looks into the world of
the very, very small.
In Wired.com, Michael Chorost writes of the blue light
experiment, "They'd shown that a beam of light could control
brain activity with great precision."
