Hey who watched the oscars? Just kiddin, those were some neat pics, the military must use infared for missions, it’s amazing
March 6th, 2006 at 8:41 am
I learned that there are different colors for different degrees of heaT!!!!
March 6th, 2006 at 8:41 am
I learned that Infrared can turn warm blooded things into colorful things and cold blooded things are black.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:41 am
I like this website because the web about Ifrarred is very helpful in understanding what it is. It is a very helpful website and I now understand more about what it is.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:42 am
I thought looking at the pictures of the infrared was really cool. I really understood the one with the cup and the hot water. All the pictures were really cool.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:44 am
It is awsome how you can see throw the black bag. Look at that guys glasses. I wish I had some infared goggles.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:44 am
I think it is cool how u can see through fog and kind of smoke
March 6th, 2006 at 8:44 am
Infared-Police use those in helicopters to find people on foot that are on the run, bet you guys didn’t know that
March 6th, 2006 at 8:44 am
my cousin has a infra red camra!
March 6th, 2006 at 8:45 am
I liked the pic that let you see through a black bag by infar-red.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:46 am
Jed, no i didnt watch the oscars, but I hear you didnt enjoy them. But I agree, the way people use infared is “amazing” !
March 6th, 2006 at 8:46 am
What does a ripe lemon look like in infared?
March 6th, 2006 at 8:47 am
Was the guy dead or sleeping?
March 6th, 2006 at 8:47 am
The cups are color with all the different colors on them. I wonder what it would be like to see them in real time.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:48 am
Can Infra Red go threw thin metals like tin?
March 6th, 2006 at 8:48 am
How could you use infrared light to help figure out how to keep a house warm??
March 6th, 2006 at 8:49 am
I didnt know that there was infared police jed.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:50 am
has anyone ever looked through infared goggles or anything else.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:50 am
Turkey hunting season is almost here, I’ll have to get an infared gun scope (if they exist) I wonder how infared works in the daytime?
March 6th, 2006 at 8:50 am
maybe it was a girl ellen..lol
March 6th, 2006 at 8:51 am
To find where heat is exscaping.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:53 am
How far away can infared detect stuff?
March 6th, 2006 at 8:53 am
You can use infared to determin the heat and coldness in a house and use that to either cool down the house or warm up the house.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:53 am
Jed it would be hard to use infared in the day beause of all the heat fro the sun.
March 6th, 2006 at 8:54 am
you can use it to seewhat partsof the house are not geting heat. and you may clean out the system, or mabey puta space heater!

Using this is cool because you can track people just using there heat signiture they leave!:)
March 6th, 2006 at 9:30 am
It help explains why the bahammahas are like they are. Exotic and warm! And if your tracking creatures you can use the general area they come from to see the possible areas they could be. Like a penguin won’t leave cold places and go to cuba!

I think that the ability to see through the bag is cool because it shows things can be transparent.
March 6th, 2006 at 9:33 am
I think that it is cool that you can see through only the trash bag and also you can’t see his goatee.
March 6th, 2006 at 9:34 am
Rob,
Do you think it is possible that something that is usually transparent blocks infra red?
March 6th, 2006 at 9:35 am
I think that the colorful pictures are pretty. How did humans come upon infired light? How did we find it and know it existed?
March 6th, 2006 at 9:36 am
I think that it is amazing that you can see right through the black bag.
I think that it is cool that using infrared you can track people.
March 6th, 2006 at 9:36 am
I think it’s cool that infrared can see through some matrial!
March 6th, 2006 at 9:37 am
These pictures were really neat because it taught us a different ways police detect where people are. The pictures were really cool.
March 6th, 2006 at 9:37 am
This site is amazing! If we cannot see infared then who came up with the idea of infared? Colors we cannot see, that are different degrees of heat. People could have thought the guy was crazy or somthing. I am going to look that up. Can any one tell me who thought of Infared ? lol
March 6th, 2006 at 9:40 am
Brittany,
Is it heat from the ice cube? What color means hot? What color means cold?
March 6th, 2006 at 9:41 am
Mr. Light,no I just think that we sould be able to always see infra red.
March 6th, 2006 at 9:44 am
why can’t we see infared any way?
March 6th, 2006 at 9:44 am
I think that white means really really hot. And I think that black means really really cold. Just an assumption though.
(answer to Brittanys question)
March 6th, 2006 at 9:45 am
Wouldn’t it be cool if we could see infrared.
March 6th, 2006 at 9:45 am
It looks like a cut.

Thank you for all your thoughts. I have a couple of requests for your comments.
1. Make sure you are submitting your comment under the right entry. Some of you posted comments about infra red to my “Who Am I” blog.
2. Try to make your comment clear. If you are responding to someone, or commenting on what someone said, you might want to cut and paste a part of their comment, or atleast explain what they said.
3. Remember, your comments are being published for the world to see. Think about this as you write and be aware of spelling, capitalization, etc. It may be helpful to write your comment in a word processor and then cut and paste it into the “Leave a Reply” box.

I found this interesting, but it was really too fast for me to absorb enough to be useful. I have no doubt that this can be useful to me, but my guess is that it takes a great deal of time in front of the computer to set it up — probably more time than I would want to spend.
But I applaud your attempt to share what you have learned. We need to do this w/ each other more, and we need the time in which to do it.
And thanks for giving me my first opportunity to write in someone’s blog. K

this website is really cool and i like the pictures so there
March 13th, 2006 at 11:49 am
Black holes are cool
March 15th, 2006 at 11:00 am
I learned a lot about infra-red I learned that is changes colors in different heat temps. We can sometimes save peoples lives by the special carmeras that let us see infra-red.

To Mr. Light and Students,
I am glad to have had the opportunity to try blogging.
