Flame Colours and Spectroscopy

The video explores the evolution of spectroscopy, starting with Bunsen's flame tests and advancing to Kirchhoff's spectroscope, which allowed for precise element identification. This led to the discovery of cesium and rubidium. The video also covers the discovery of helium during a solar eclipse by Jansen and Lockyer, highlighting the power of spectroscopy in identifying new elements.
