Glass is a transparent medium from Visible Light, which means, visible light can go through it without being blocked. Glass is NOT transparent for the entire electromagnetic spectrum though, Infra-Red light cannot go through glass (it blocks it much like a wall does to visible light!)
Generally, the shorter the wavelength (as you go from red to violet to microwaves to x-ray to gamma), the more objects it can penetrate (which is the reason x-ray can penetrate your skin and flesh, but not your bones).
