Cheryl asks a deeper question about color: what actually makes an object the color it appears? She applies what she's learned about different wavelengths of light to answer the question and along the way learns about other colors of light that humans can't see, like x-rays, gamma rays, ultraviolet, microwaves, and even radio waves. It's never too late to learn about the world around you.  

This is part of our Color unit.
