fiat lux

Let there be light. 

It has been said various places that light is the origin of life. 

But what is the nature of this light? 

In October 2016, astronomers reported that the very basic chemical ingredients of life—the carbon-hydrogen molecule (CH, or methylidyne radical), the carbon-hydrogen positive ion (CH+) and the carbon ion (C+)—are the result, in large part, of ultraviolet light from stars, rather than in other ways, such as the result of turbulent events related to supernovae and young stars, as thought earlier.

So - let there be Black Light, sisters and brothers...
