More than 4,500 satellites are orbiting Earth and there are currently more than 400 of these satellites equipped with the capability to measure visible, infrared, and microwave waves. These satellite images were initially used for military purposes, but their uses have expanded over the decades. For many, the best-known use of satellite imagery is via […]
Continue readingThe truth is that the application of satellite imagery in agriculture isn’t a new thing. If you consider yourself a historian, go check the records of new innovations employed in this practice over the years. you’ll learn various agricultural organizations have been utilizing images collected by our satellites from space for decades. Satellite imagery is used […]
Continue readingConfocal microscopy has become an important tool in the life sciences. It allows researchers to obtain high-resolution images of living cells and tissues, making it a valuable tool for studying the structure and function of biological systems. Confocal microscopy uses a laser to scan a specimen and create an image. In this guide, I’ll discuss […]
Continue readingSome may think that drones are glorified toys. However, today’s drones are both fun and can help you take cinematic photos however you like with amazing perspectives. Although these flying cameras may require substantial investment, they are perfect for adding unique value to your travel vlogs and incorporating high production quality in your film. Drones […]
Continue readingNorth America is home to 25 species of New World Blackbirds, and 15 of them are found in Montana. In this state, you’ll find a myriad of orioles, cowbirds, meadowlarks, bobolinks, blackbirds, and grackles. Montana is an extremely cold region in the US, so most blackbirds migrate to this state in April to spend summer, […]
Continue readingDid you know that light doesn’t travel in a straight line? Cool air is denser than hot air, so light bends as it travels through space and encounters atmospheric layers with varying temperatures. Unless you’re studying light in a vacuum, the light you see will always have been through this process of bending and shifting. […]
Continue readingIt’s no secret that photographing fireworks requires a bit of practice, trial, and error. But with these 10 tips, you’ll be well on your way to capturing those explosive moments in all their glory! For your convenience, I’ve compiled these tips into a handy list. So, without further ado, here are 10 tips for photographing […]
Continue readingSpectroscopy refers to the interaction of light with matter. In ultraviolet spectroscopy, UV light is used to study the properties of molecules. It can help determine molecules’ structure, composition, and interaction with other molecules. Ultraviolet spectroscopy is a powerful tool that is used in a variety of fields. Some of them include medicine, environmental science, […]
Continue readingA laser is a highly concentrated light beam. It is generated by a device that amplifies light waves. The word “laser” is an acronym for “light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.” Lasers have many uses, including cutting and welding materials, measuring distance, and treating medical conditions. Laser beams can be very intense, so they […]
Continue readingWhen light passes through a prism, it refracts or bends, turning into a rainbow of colors. It happens because light travels at different speeds through different materials. The amount of refraction depends on the difference in speed and the angle of incidence at which light hits the material. When light passes through a prism, you’ll […]
