Lecture 23: Color Science (72)

Magenta as a color isn't on the spectrum, but rather a "physiologically and psychologically perceived as a mixture of red and blue" on the opposite ends of the spectrum. https://scholarblogs.emory.edu/artsbrain/2020/12/02/magenta-doesnt-exist/

The ranges specifically for each of the colors are Violet - 400-420 nanometers Indigo - 420 - 440 nm Blue - 440 - 490 nm Green - 490 - 570 nm Yellow - 570 - 585 nm Orange - 585 - 620 nm Red - 620 - 780 nanometers It is interesting to note that red has the longest wavelength and lowest frequency

@JustinHuey1, Yea it's interesting and certainly true because wave length times frequency is a constant--the speed of light.
