Astronomy and the ultraviolet spectrum
Astronomy and the ultraviolet spectrum. This part of the electromagnetic spectrum includes Extreme Ultraviolet (left) and Ultraviolet (UV, at right); Extreme UV borders on X-rays, while UV borders on optical wavelengths. UV light is strongly absorbed by the atmosphere, including the ozone layer (yellow band). Instruments for detecting UV must be carried above atmospheric interference on rockets, the space shuttle (upper right) or satellites. Extreme UV is partly absorbed by interstellar gas (grey wedge at upper left). Sources of UV include the Sun (upper centre), galaxies (swirls at upper right) and hot stars (points at upper right)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating world of astronomy and the ultraviolet spectrum. The image beautifully illustrates the different components of this part of the electromagnetic spectrum, with Extreme Ultraviolet on the left and Ultraviolet (UV) on the right. While Extreme UV borders on X-rays in terms of wavelength, UV borders on optical wavelengths. The yellow band representing the ozone layer reminds us that UV light is strongly absorbed by our atmosphere. To overcome this interference, instruments for detecting UV must be carried above it using rockets, space shuttles, or satellites as depicted in the upper right corner. The grey wedge at the upper left symbolizes interstellar gas partially absorbing Extreme UV radiation. Sources emitting UV include not only our very own Sun positioned at the upper center but also galaxies represented by swirls at upper right and hot stars indicated by points nearby. This artwork serves as a reminder that studying and understanding these invisible parts of our universe requires advanced technology and exploration beyond Earth's boundaries. It highlights how astronomers rely on telescopes, observatories, and specialized detectors to capture valuable data about ultraviolet astronomy. Overall, this stunning visual representation from Science Photo Library encapsulates both scientific knowledge and artistic beauty while shedding light on an intriguing aspect of astrophysics – unveiling secrets hidden within the vastness of space through ultraviolet exploration.
