International Ultraviolet Explorer was considered the most successful astronomical satellite ever. The human eye can perceive light with wavelengths between roughly 350 (violet) and 700 (red) nanometres. Ultraviolet light has wavelengths between roughly 10 nm and 350 nm. UV light can be harmful to human beings, and is strongly absorbed by the ozone layer. This makes it impossible to observe UV emission from astronomical objects from the ground. Many types of object emit copious quantities of UV radiation, though: the hottest and most massive stars in the universe can have surface temperatures high enough that the vast majority of their light is emitted
Sun tanning on the body, instead it uses a colorless chemical which reacts with proteins in the top layer of the skin, resulting in a brown color. Sun tanning Sun tanning or simply tanning is the process whereby skin color is darkened or tanned.
