So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

The frequency at which the photons travel is in the microwave range, which is why it is called a microwave. They tune the frequency very carefully so that it matches a prominent energy absorption of the water molecule. So basically your microwave heats up all the water inside your food, but not actually the food itself. The hot water molecules do that. Instead of letting the heat slowly seep through your food from the outside in, all parts of the food get cooked at once! That's why adding some water to your rice or vegetables helps do the job. Back in the 70s, during the last time that everyone was freaking out about energy issues, some people decided that it would be a great idea to heat peoples' houses using microwave technology. Think about how much energy we would save if instead of heating all the molecules in the entire house, we just heated the molecules inside the people in the house, who are ~70% water! Brilliant! Well, it turns out that among other things, microwave radiation is very bad for your eyeballs, which are a huge percentage water and which don't have very good schemes for getting rid of excess heat. So microwave heating can unfortunately make you go blind. After all, cooking yourself from the inside isn't exactly what God had in mind when he retrofitted your body for warm-bloodedness. My professor: "One time I was able to experience microwave heating myself-- they gave me a pair of protective eyewear and I stuck my arm in a microwave chamber..... that was back before microwaves were bad for you." My professor: "I don't know if I have drawn the Earth's magnetic field lines in the right direction... well if not, we can just wait a few thousand years and the field will reverse and my diagram will be right." 3 Comments. "just wait a few thousand years" I like that. » jinyu on 2009-01-30 11:03:53 Weeee I'm taking a space and space travel class (where we have to learn about all of the different waves and such) so it excites me to know that I actually understand what you're talking about! If we all had robot eyeballs maybe that would solve the problem...but then I'm sure something would get screwy with the circuitry » The-Muffin-Man on 2009-01-30 03:09:54 HAha I wonder what his arm felt like. » middaymoon on 2009-01-30 05:04:22
