Note the solar spectrum is scaled by a factor of a millionth in order to see them together, since
the total area under the curve is about (6000/300) ^ 4 = 160,000 times larger for the hotter object.
Now we compute the integral of this curve at all wavelengths, which remember is physically
the total area under the curve.
