Chicago - Astro. Lines: 8 Sometime in college I saw a graph of the transmission functions of air and water both compared to the sensitivity of the human eye, as a function of wavelength. The eye's response fit into a wide peak in air's transmission but was almost an exact match to water. I thought the graph I saw was in the Feynman Lectures on Physics, but I can't find it there now. Maybe somebody else has seen the like somewhere?
