Visible light includes a range of colors and is the only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see. Read the scenario about light and answer the questions in complete sentences.

What is the scientific error in this story? Group of answer choices All sides of the Moon are illuminated by sunlight in the course of a month; there is no dark side. While we have some credible reports of UFO landings, it is difficult to imagine that advanced aliens would be afraid of the light. The dark side of the Moon is the one that faces the Earth and our telescopes would have spotted such a base. This seems to be a perfectly reasonable story.
