With the naked eye, the part between 400 and 700 nanometers called the visible spectrum. Red to Violet/Blue. Humans can NOT see ultraviolet light, only what is reflected off using something within the visible spectrum. Humans also can NOT see infrared light without special instruments.

In one of the most stunning coincidences in all of science and nature, the human eye
responds energetically to every wavelength of electromagnetic radiation in the Visible band,
and not at all to any wavelength that is not included in the Visible band.
