A
digital image can be treated as a data set to extract information. Each
pixel's intensity value is a measure of how much energy was used to generate
it within the band of spectrum used to produce the image. The sum of the
pixel intensities is a measure of the total energy used to create the
whole image.The highest output of energy from the object in the photograph
is the lighter "glow" of the eclipse. The Sesmimetric value
of the "glow" is estimated at 78.Another oddity is that the
"warm" area of the object is pushing away a cooler section of
air.
In 3336, light refraction is reveiled showing that the object in the image is 3-dimensional.
Spectrum |
Refraction is the change in direction of a wave due to a change in its speed. This is most commonly seen when a wave passes from one medium to another. Refraction of light is the most commonly seen example, but any type of wave can refract when it interacts with a medium. The question is, what is bending the UV light while the visible is unaffected?
More interesting componets are found in the spectrum and IR bandpass filters applied to 3637.
The bandpass analysis suggests that the object is in the near infrared portion of the spectrum.
These photographs are are quite different than the other images that we have gotten with the X-spectrum camera. Currently we are attempting to find possible natural explainations for the phenomena recorded in these images.
