Worlds are hidden of which we are unaware.” -Albert Einstein with some form of measurable energy. Evidence suggests that in some cases, at least a portion of this energy falls into the infrared spectrum of light. This would explain the appearance of anomalous images on equipment that is sensitive to infrared light. Infrared photographic film is also sensitive in part to the portion of infrared light called near-infrared, and so it should allow a similar ability to capture any anomalous activity that is associated with the near- infrared spectrum of light when used in conjunction with a standard 35mm SLR camera. Infrared light, just as ultra violet light, is all around us. We cannot detect it with our own eyes, certain instruments and types of media are sensitive to these invisible spectrums of light and can capture them. They can then render them in such a way that their otherwise invisible light is represented in a visible fashion. Infrared light can be divided into three regions, near IR, middle IR and far IR depending on the wavelength. While all of these infrared regions are visible to the naked eye, each has a distinct characteristic that differentiates it from the others. The primary topic of our concern is middle and far IR. These are characterized by heat emission, and are not visible to infrared sensitive film. Film sensitive to infrared light, such as KODAK HIE infrared, is sensitive only to near IR specifically the major portion of it closest to the visible light spectrum. Many regular digital cameras produced today are capable of taking photos on par with 35mm cameras now and there is something else that most people do not know about digital cameras that is important. Most digital cameras can also see and take photos in a limited infrared spectrum of light. When you take a photo with your digital camera you can actually captured things in the visible light and infrared light spectrums. Since we believe that orbs are composed of energy that exists in the semi infrared range of light, using digital cameras will give you a better tool and a better chance of capturing an anomaly. The light we see with our eyes is really a very small portion of what is called the"Electromagnetic Spectrum." The Electromagnetic Spectrum includes all types of radiation - from the X-rays used at hospitals, to radio waves used for communication, and even the microwaves you cook food with. Radiation in the Electromagnetic Spectrum is often categorized by wavelength. Short wavelength radiation is of the highest energy and can be very dangerous - Gamma, X-rays and ultraviolet are examples of short wavelength radiation. Longer wavelength radiation is of lower energy and is usually less harmful - examples include radio, microwaves and infrared. A rainbow shows the optical (visible) part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum and infrared (if you could see it) would be located just beyond the red side of the rainbow. |
