Could aliens see in other wavelengths?
+0
−0
This question has two parts:
- Could biological processes create an organism than can see in wavelengths outside the human-visible spectrum? ("Outside" meaning some significant amount outside. There are known organisms on Earth than can see in near-infrared or near-ultraviolet, but that's not I'm asking about.)
- What factors might cause such a creature to evolve?
For the context of this question, "see" means an ability to sense the world in a similar level of detail to human sight, using electromagnetic waves.
