Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The word usually refers to visible light, which is the visible spectrum that is visible to the human eye and is responsible for the sense of sight.1 Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400â700 nanometres (nm), or 4.00 Ã 10â7 to 7.00 Ã 10â7 m, between the infrared (with longer wavelengths) and the ultraviolet (with shorter wavelengths).23 This wavelength means a frequency range of roughly 430â750 terahertz (THz).
When you see light, it means you're gonna die.
