In the related Dot Earth post, I included some remarkable video shot for the Environmental Protection Agency showing the difference between looking at an oil or gas facility with a standard camera and one tuned to the infrared wavelengths absorbed by gases like methane — the main constituent of natural gas:

The sun, which is quite hot (about 5800K), emits most of its energy at between 0.2 microns and 4 microns (solar or short wave radiation, or plain sunlight), while the Earth's surface emits the most energy at wavelengths between 5 and 50 microns (the so - called thermal Infrared region of the spectrum).
