Have there ever been any cases of people being able to see radiation out side the visible wave length!

Celluar phones emit microwave radiation yes? I belive that I have seen a desturbance in teh light around the edges of a cell phone, agaist a bright white background.

Is this possible?

It's not possible for a human to see microwave radiation as the wavelengths are far longer than the visible spectrum, even longer than infrared. What you are seeing against a bright white background is just an optical illusion because your eye can not focus on the cell phone and the background at the same time.

The microwave background isn't from the time of the huge bang. The microwave background is from a time shortly after the huge bang. there grew to become right into a time whilst the universe grew to become into so dense and warm that electromagnetic waves could no longer penetrate very a strategies in the previous encountering something which could block the form of the wave/photon. whilst the Universe had better sufficiently and adequate numbers of particle anti-particle pairs had annihilated themselves the electromagnetic waves have been frequently comparable to a particular temperature. The waves have been everywhere moving into all guidelines. The Universe has persevered to boost over the quite some Billion years provided that that factor. The waves that are arriving now have had their wave length made longer as they traversed Billions of sunshine years of the increasing universe from someplace that grew to become right into a protracted way from the place we presently are.

Microwave radiation is invisible, and anything you may have seen around a cell phone has nothing to do with the radiation which it uses for communication.

No, it is not possible.

The way your eye is structured does not allow for the possibility to see wavelengths outside of the "visual" range, certainly not into microwaves...

Yes, some people (and animals) have a wider range of vision than others, but for a human to see microwave radiation is as chemically impossible as for you to digest concrete.

There have never been any legitimate claims of people being able to see radiation outside the visible wavelengths.

You can actually see X-rays under certain circumstances. It appears as a blue-grey light.

I've never heard of anyone seeing microwaves, though.

i do not believe so for microwaves are below or above the visible spectrum for humans.... unless you have powers oohhhoowhwho
