Why do scorpions glow under UV light? 🦂 Kronk, an emperor scorpion, has a hyaline layer, a thin outer coating, filled with compounds that absorb ultraviolet rays and re-emit them as vivid blue-green fluorescence on the visible spectrum. This adaptation, seen in fluorescent arachnids worldwide, still puzzles scientists. #Scorpion #AnimalAdaptations #WeirdScience #Science #Arachnids #UVLight | Museum of Science, Boston

This phenomenon is called fluorescence, where the scorpion's exoskeleton absorbs the UV light and re-emits it as visible light, usually a blue-green color. #Scorpion #ScorpionFacts #facts #factsyoudidntknow #factsdaily #biology #biologyfact #science #sciencefacts #unbelievable #randomfacts #interestingfacts #knowledge #knowledgefacts #reelsviralシfb #reelsfbシ #reelsfypシ #viralreelsfacebook #factreels #virqlreels | World's Amazing Factz
