Water vapor
seen at these infrared wavelengths is in the upper and middle levels of the troposphere, where the winds are ruled by large - scale air masses.
Whereas the newly discovered southern hot spot (
seen at infrared wavelengths by instruments on the Juno probe now orbiting Jupiter) pulses once every 9 to 11 minutes, the northern x-ray hot spot has, in the past, been observed pulsing at rates of once every 12 minutes, once every 26 minutes, and once every 40 to 45 minutes.

Venus Express proved it would work: Looking
at one
infrared wavelength allowed astronomers to
see hot spots that might be signs of active volcanism (SN Online: 6/19/15).
«You couldn't
see these things
at all in visible
wavelength images, but in the nighttime
infrared they're very bright,» Schultz said.
Imaging the cosmos
at near -
infrared wavelengths allowed the astronomers to
see objects that are both obscured by dust, and extremely distant [2], created when the Universe was just an infant.
Very young stars that can not be
seen in visible - light images are revealed when observed
at longer
infrared wavelengths, where the dust that shrouds them is more transparent.
These images must be false - color because people can't
see anything
at infrared wavelengths.
The «colours» are due to differences in the surface temperature of starsw1: hotter stars emit most of their light in the visible blue or ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, whereas cooler stars radiate
at longer
wavelengths, in the visible red or
infrared regions (
see Mignone & Barnes, 2011a).
That altitude is above the primary part of the atmosphere that blocks
infrared light, which means the telescope can observe
at wavelengths longer than the ones we
see in our Disk Detective WISE data, but shorter than the submillimeter
wavelengths we've observed
at with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope.
We also expect to
see more
infrared radiation returning back to Earth
at these same
wavelengths.
