... The most important tool you have to see the universe is not the large light buckets that are proliferating, but rather your eyes. ... Light enters the eye through the cornea, passes across the aqueous humor (the liquid behind the cornea), passes through the pupil and through the lens. ... After passing the lens, the light then crosses the "vitreous Humor" a jelly-like substance that fills the inner eye, and reaches the retina, the light sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. ...

Static Fourier spectrometers are often used for spectral measurements of the ionosphere emissions. There are two main advantages of Fourier spectrometers (FS) - large geometric factor and high spectral resolution; these parameters are two orders better than for grating spectral instruments. ... In scanning Fourier spectrometer optical and electric modulation of signal is used to avoid this problem, for static Fourier spectrometer there are no such ways. ...
