    The document discusses the differences between natural light and artificial light. Natural light from the sun is full spectrum and changes throughout the day, providing visual and biological cues. Most artificial lights emit a static spectrum that does not change and can only mimic daylight or evening light. Blue-rich LED lights can interfere with sleep, while incandescent lights provide full spectrum light but only mimic sunset. The document acknowledges that artificial lights provide advantages of illumination when it is dark but also disadvantages like electricity use and safety risks if not used carefully. Overall, artificial lights are deemed useful despite not matching natural light.

    ARTIFICIAL ILLUMINATION AND DAYLIGHTNING

    Natural Light is from the sun, natural light is full of spectrum and dynamic.
    Spectrum means that light contains all the colors in the rainbow and dynamic means
    that the intensity and mix of colors changes with the time of day. Natural light provides
    the visual (aesthetic) and biological (health and wellness) queues we need to see and
    feel our best. Natural light is where we see when there is no electricity, all natural and
    no man-made lights.
    Most artificial light sources emit a static spectrum which means their mix of colors
    cannot change with time of day. As a result artificial lights are designed to either
    replicate daylight and evening light. This artificial lights don’t change by the time of the
    day, they are constant, they have lives which they slow down (getting dark) when
    getting old. Light from most LED products is intrinsically blue-rich since they are
    powered by blue LEDs. Blue rich light interferes with our sleep and recovery and should
    therefore be avoided at night. Traditional incandescent light sources provide good full-
    spectrum light but can only mimic sunset. Each artificial light source delivers a different
    mix of biological, aesthetic and energy impacts. Artificial lights can be used safely as
    long as the intensity and color is appropriate for the time of the day.
    Artificial lights gives us more light, it helps us in many ways nowadays. We know
    that this is a part of our growing technology and gives us both advantage and
    disadvantage in some way. Advantage because it helps us to have an light when it is
    dark and some disadvantages because it is powered by electricity and many risk can
    be done if ever we don’t use it carefully. For me, it is good that we have this artificial
    lights because it helps us in many ways and gives us more advantage. If we don’t have
    artificial lights, it is hard to see when night time and we will use fire as a light, and I think
    fire is more dangerous.
