In his series "Fraunhofer Lines", blocks of color and shadow are set against heavily censored government reports, such as that by the U.S Senate into torture allegations at the base in Guantanamo Bay.

That’s where NASA’s Joanna Joiner of the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., and Christian Frankenberg of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., came in, with their innovative use of an electromagnetic phenomenon known as Fraunhofer lines.

These bands are so pronounced in the part of the spectrum between the Fraunhofer lines F and D, as to leave the solar spectrum unrecognizable....

Consequently they are known as Fraunhofer lines, or dark absorption lines.

This photograph completely confirms Young’s discovery, and shows the prominent Fraunhofer lines bright, the bright lines of the chromosphere spectrum being especially conspicuous.
