Cancer Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Ask me lightsaber color and I reach for spectral line wavelengths, which is an aspect of deep geekery you innocent children should be spared.

Cancer Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Oh, make no mistake, I'd love to have a room painted H-beta. And my battle standard will look like the Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon album cover, but I will add a fringe on the fly side, all black, except for one red, one blue-green, and two violet strands at the appropriate places. But for a lightsaber I would have much thinking to choose a wavelength, and it might well not be in the visible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 But they have fuzzy edges. No, the things I would include in my considerations are lines that are not visible to the human eye but are in the "visible window" from about 3000 Angstroms up to about 1.1 microns.

Bazza Posted December 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 For teachers and lecturers The word school derives from Greek σχολή (scholē), originally meaning "leisure" and also "that in which leisure is employed", but later "a group to whom lectures were given, school".[1][2][3] For modern students, to describe school as leisure would be the most ridiculous thing imaginable. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
