Radiance of the Spectrum
And so Elias thought away at the desk in the study. He thought and thought of the different possibilities of how the theory could be done.
“Well, the sun is made up of Ultraviolet radiation and if the sun’s light is spectrum then therefore the rainbow is made up of spectrum; and if spectrum is UV radiation then the rainbow has UV radiation conducting through it,” Elias thought to himself “If there is a certain radiation point on the spectrum of the rainbow and we get to or gain control of that radiation point, then we have access to the link between Equestria and Earth. Thing is, where is that point and how do we get to or gain control of its UV radiation?”
Elias started to look up “How do you conduct UV radiation?” but he couldn’t find anything useful. “I probably could make an artificial rainbow and after finding out where the specific UV radiation was I might have to extract the UV from that point therefore having that link to use,” Elias thought “I guess the most important thing to do right now is to figure out where the point is.”
“Wow,” Elias thought “It’s like Theoryception. Now how do I figure out where this certain point is? I could try extracting a sample of every color of spectrum, but that’s where the main problem comes in: how do I extract the UV from the rest of the rainbow?”
This problem really frustrated Elias. The internet wasn’t of much help. All Elias learned was that a rainbow is made of UV-b radiation. He wasn’t sure if this would be helpful. Elias got up and grabbed a flashlight and a prism. He flashed the light the prism and saw the rainbow made from the bending of the light. Elias looked at the different colors and thought more. “I just need to extract every colors radiation so that all colors are separated and ready for testing which colors have the link,” Elias thought. He rubbed his wrist on his eyes in exhaustion.
“Oh, this could be so much more simpler if you could just have contact with the rainbow, but if that was so, then Equestria wouldn’t be so secret and people would be teleporting there without any struggle, but it was worth a try” Elias said to himself, making the rainbow once again with the light and prism “Hey Rainbow Dash, could you please come here?” And after a few seconds, Rainbow Dash came into the study.
“Hey, Elias, what did you need?” responded Rainbow Dash “Ooh, a rainbow!” she said looking down at the rainbow on the ground.
“I need you to put your hoof on every separate color of the rainbow that is on the ground. All seven colors,”
“Ok,” said Rainbow Dash walking towards the rainbow. Elias decided to have a pony to step on the colors because there might be some kind of reaction with an Equestrian stepping on the link to Equestria.
The pony put her hoof down on the first color of the rainbow, red. Nothing happened. Then orange, no reaction, yellow, no reaction, green, again, no reaction. But when she put her hoof down on the blue, a bright, white light started to fade in where the blue used to be. It continued to glow.
“Interesting,” Elias commented “Go on.” She gave a nod and looked between the blue and purple trying to find indigo, as indigo is a rather hard color to find on the rainbow. Once she found it, she put her hoof down, no reaction, finally purple, no reaction.
“Ok, thanks, Rainbow Dash,” Elias said.
“You’re welcome,” Rainbow Dash said walking out of the room. Elias continued thinking about what had happened.
“What had happened with the contact between the pony and the blue spectrum? Blue had to be the link.” Now the hardest part came: how to extract blue spectrum from the rest of the rainbow. Could it have something to do with Rainbow Dash and the blue spectrum; or perhaps something to do with the Fraunhofer lines, After all the lines also act as boundaries between the energy between different spectra.
“Hey, Rainbow Dash, I need you again,” Elias called out, and soon, the rainbow pony walking back into the study.
“What’s up,” Rainbow Dash said.
“We’re are going to be doing an experiment,”
“Ok, what are we going to be doing?”
“I’m not sure what, but I have to try something. I don’t even know if it will work but what I have learnt in the past is that even some of the most radical ideas I have had were true.”
“Ok, well educate me on what we will need.” Elias went to a cabinet of his and opened it up.
“Some safety gloves, that should be it, for now,” Elias said as he pulled out some rubber gloves. He also pulled out some rubber gloves that the pony could wear; Elias made them not long ago for a different experiment that a pony could do, due to their lack of hands. “Ok, let’s go outside,” Elias said grabbing the gloves, the prism, the light, and a glass phial just in case. Elias had a feeling he would need it. And so the two went outside and went along with their experiment.
“Ok, put your hoof back on the blue of the rainbow,” Elias said holding a prism in the air. Rainbow Dash put her hoof on the blue spectrum. The same thing happened. The blue part of the rainbow started to glow white. “Alright now, while keeping your hoof on the ground, slide it away from the rainbow.” The pony did so and as she did the glowing white stripe followed along with her hoof; once the stripe was fully separated from the rest of the spectrum, the other colors-red, orange, yellow, green, indigo, and violet-turned into smoke.
The smoke was the colors of the colors before them for a few seconds until they almost immediately changed into gray until the smoke diminished in the air. All that remained was the glowing stripe under Rainbow Dash’s hoof.
“Ok, please keep your hoof there,” Elias said putting down the prism and grabbing the glass phial removing the cork from the top and holding the phial upside down. Elias walked over to where Rainbow Dash was and knelt down in front of the striped, phial over the glowing blue spectrum. “Ok, now take your hoof off of it.” She gave a nod and the stripe turned back into blue, but when it did, it turned into blue smoke. Quickly, Elias gathered the smoke into the phial, its blue color still being contained.
“Yes success!” Elias exclaimed “Alright, what is in this phial is the link to Equestria. As I was observing, when you had your hoof on the glowing matter when it was separated from the rest of the spectrum, you weren’t translocated to Equestria. Thank goodness because one: I don’t know if there are other Equestrians in the human realm so there might only be one way to transfer there, which is you, and two: I wouldn’t want to be left here without you,”
“Well thank goodness that didn’t happen,” Rainbow Dash said giving Elias a hug for the show of affection he shown her.
“And now we have the link,” Elias said “I’m thinking that the reasoning for why you weren’t translocated is because the link isn’t active. So we have to activate it in some way and that I have to figure out.”
“Well, I wish you the best of luck, Elias,” said Rainbow Dash
“Whew, I’m glad we found the certain radiance of the spectrum. That could’ve been a WHOLE lot harder than what it could’ve been.”
“Ok, well that was fun,”
“I can’t believe what we’ve discovered,”
“You know what, you should give that thing you discovered a name,”
“Yeah, well right now it is in its gas form so I think I might call it ‘Azulrythium’,” Elias said.
“Sounds cool!” said Rainbow Dash.
“Ok, well thanks for your help,” Elias said.
“Anytime,” Rainbow Dash said, walking inside. Elias followed behind her and went back into his study to learn more about spectrum and also to think to himself in peace. He was glad that what he thought was the hard part was over, but he has the hardest part yet to come: activating the link that is the Azulrythium. Finally, the radiance of the spectrum was found but there still is more for Elias to learn.
