I hope to find here a expertise answere to this questions, asked to me
by our neighbour who just started in astronomy.
we all know that the human eyes are highest senstive at diffrent
wavelenght on day or night time
Now can somebody explain why the human eyes are most sensitive at about
500 to 530 nm and not at 600 to 650 nm or 400 to 450 nanometer ?
Is it just because God made it that way, or is there any biological or
physical reason for that ?
we asked several PHD Physics and Biological People and they all have
been a bit confused because never somebody asked this question before
and they even dont know the answere
so is here somebody who can explain me the reason ?

Let's see. The night sky is closer to Indigo (between blue
and magenta or violet). While the day sky's closer to cyan
or bluegreen. Green is yellow-cyan and is exactly opposite
magenta or violet on the zodiacal color wheel. Men adapted
to the color of the Sun in the daytime sky to wit yellow &
cyan, respectively. Yellow & Cyan mixing together is Green.
A simple sidereal & synodic chart of the zodiac shows this:

P.S. Think about what light and color is...
Color intensity or chroma is its degree of
saturation -and- departure from pure light
which equally spans the wavelengths of all
visible light to the average human eye, as
interpreted by the average human brain. It
is ultimately the brain which decides that
"pure" light is "pure" white; albeit white
and black are not colors: since "white" is
the appearance of every visible wavelength
of proportional intensity such that the hu-
man eye and brain cannot distinguish color.
Black by contrast (pun), is the absence of
any visible wavelengths sufficient for the
human eye and brain to detect its presence.
In order to become visible to the eye, the
visible wavelengths must necessarily enter
inside the human eyeball through the pupil.
Any potentially visible light outside of a
human eye remains invisible to that eye un-
til such time as it may enter therein. The
discussion of "what color is sunlight?" is
strictly limited to what the eye and brain
in fact detects and interprets in everyday
life. Never in recorded history has anyone
ever claimed that sunlight usually appears
"red", "orange", "green", "blue", "indigo"
or "violet" on a clear day in the noon-day
sunlight. Words like "golden" and "yellow"
describe the sunlight we see with our eyes
and interpret with our brains...always has
and always will. Green-blue best describes
the color of the clear daytime sky. That's
exactly what "cyan" is. Cyan is frequently
called "sky blue". Subtle shades, variants
of primary, secondary, tertiary color have
more particular names, and when mixed upon
the additive and subtractive pallettes are
limited only to the visible light spectrum.
__________________________________________
The eye cares not how colors are made, but
only sees that color entering into the eye.
__________________________________________
Persons living in southern Arizona are apt
to think of summertime "sky blue" as a bit
deeper and richer in "blue" color than say
someone braving a winter in Barrow, Alaska.
But when speaking in more general terms of
the primary and secondary chromatic colors,
the daytime sky is more cyan than green or
blue in every part of the world. Nuff said.
Hope that helps,

The Collected Buffoonery of Daniel J. Min - Usenet's most failed prophet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who is Danny Min?
What does he post?
Examples of failed prophecies
What you should do
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who is Daniel J. Min?
Daniel J. Min is a denizen of Usenet newsgroups. He posts using various variations on his name, including using asterisks or underlines in place of letters. Often he will post as "Nomen Nescio" or Anonymous, and he used to post as GOD>.
The reason for this is to get around peoples "kill files" or "bozo filters"
However, he consistently posts through anonymous "remailers" in order to disguise his true identity
He posts to various newsgroups, including alt.astrology, alt.astronomy, and alt.prophecies.nostradamus. He posts in any inappropriate newsgroup he deems neccessary.
Additionally Danny has been known to directly email people, once again, using his anonymous remailer service.
What does he post?
Danny posts various garbage claims about astrological influences, and birthdata, which he generally makes up as he goes along. Outstanding amongst his posts include claims to know exactly the birthdata of Jesus Christ, Johannes Kepler, Ptolemy, and various other historical characters.
He posts silly prophecies and claims, and even at times posts his own "kill file list" which has become so large that it's unlikely he even *sees* anyone else s posts anymore.
Some Classic examples of Danny's failed prophecies
(Danny's "prophetic" words are italicized)
Danny predicts the "Great Khan of Terror":
On 15 Nov 1999 22:34:03 -0600, GOD wrote in these newsgroups:
The king of terror will come some time around the month of May in 2000.
At this time, the inner planets will all be lined up on one side of the sun with the exception of the Earth which will be directly at the opposite side.
The increased gravitational effects of the sun combined with the added pull from the other planets will have a devastating effect on the earth.
At this time, all major fault lines will rupture. California will experience the big one at this time.
Volcanic activity will increase and it is very likely that the Long Valley Caulderra will explode cataclysmicly. These types of events will be occurring at roughly the same time throughout the entire planet.
To top it off, the suns corona will be nudged away from the earth...towards the grouped inner planets, effectively creating a massive coronal hole (I.E." the "three days of darkness").
When the pull of the alignment comes to pass, the corona will snap back to the earth facing side thereby releasing a CME of massive proportions....aimed directly at planet Earth.
Believe me, there will be terror at this time.

Daniel predicts the US presidential election for 2000
On 12 Nov 2000 23:44:00 -0000, Daniel Joseph Min wrote:
The 42nd President of the United States is the very
last of all the American Presidents to hold office.
He will announce our *National Emergency* shortly,
thus will continue in the office of the President,
having already been inaugurated in due diligence
when he was elected President. Gore is still VP.
&There is no reason to repeal the 22nd amendment,
given that Mr. President William Jefferson Clinton
has been elected twice only, and no more, thus the
amendment does not apply. Neither does a term limit
apply in his case, given that this is indeed a true
state of emergency with bloody violence seen to be
escalating in the State of Florida and elsewhere,
spreading like wildfire as it is in the mid east.
Get to higher ground if you can (look at England!)
Daniel Joseph Min
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So what should you do about him?
Well, first of all, you can be pretty sure based on his success rate that anything he has to say is wrong.
Someone once said, rather well, that "there is too much Min, and not enough Nostradamus" in what he posts.
Complaining won't do much, because he's they type of individual that doesn't feel the need to explain himself.
Asking him to stop only feeds him.
complaining to his anonymous remailer service results in nothing.
About the best thing to be said, is just be aware of what a buffoon he is.

Now I see --- (even with blue eyes and being a left
handed, homosexual, senior citizen - Democrat -
that's permanently disabled and retired -- living in
the calm setting of a mountain plain in Laytonville,
California) --- and I realize the root truth of it all
Min is also Nomen Nescio or Average Joe.
Such a busy freak he must be too. I'd guess he
never sleeps more than half an hour in any given

The light of the Sun itself is different from the color
of sunlight as viewed here from Earth with our own eyes.
The spectral class of the Sun is G2v, with most intense
wavelengths at about 5010 A (5.010 x 10^-7m) because of
the Sun's surface temperature, luminosity, and distance.
NASA's site describes this as a "solar-type spectra..ab-
sorption lines of neutral metallic atoms and ions..grow
in strength". By contrast, the sunlight we see with our
eyes is definitively yellow near southing (12 Noon LAT)
and falls off toward orangish-yellow, then red-orangish
as the sky appears to blend from skyblue down to yellow,
orange-yellow and red as low bandwidths become dominant
as sunlight filters obliquely through Earths atmosphere.
This of course changes with the seasons, latitudes, and
concentration of various particulates in the atmosphere,
and any weather rolling in changes colors significantly,
e.g., thick clouds can appear green above yellow fields!
But most people aren't color blind and have fair vision,
so what one person sees as "green" another sees it also.
You don't hear anyone saying "out of a CLEAR GREEN SKY"
(or if they do, they're probably tripping on mushrooms).
We seldom look directly at the Sun for more than a frac-
tion of a second. So the color of the sunlight is gaged
more by how it appears from the Earth's surface to illu-
minate our daytime sky and all objects that we see down
here where human beings have lived and evolved for many
millions of years with its contrast of light and shadow,
day and night, and everything in between these extremes.
So the sunlight we see is more yellow than any other co-
lor & our daytime sky is more cyan than any other color.
When you mix predominantly yellow with predominantly cy-
an you get predominantly green. It's really very simple.
Enjoy!
