This is fascinating. It would be neat to see a list of applications where non-visible light has been used to portray non-visible data in visible light. I wonder all too often what things I'm not seeing by only being able to capture a tiny fraction of the EM spectrum. Actually, what would be really neat is to see how far away we can go. Photos of the sun with an x-ray camera[1], for example, are a really neat application!
