A Color You Can't See

Think of all the colors you can see? Think about rainbows, field full of flowers, and holiday decorations. With all of the colors that we can see, there are many more that we can't see, at least with just our eyes. With the help of a cell phone, you can see some of those invisible colors.

Light a Bulb with a Balloon

We are used to thinking that it takes a lot of energy to produce light. This time, we will see that even a small amount of the right kind of energy can give us some light.
