Make 2015 the International Year of Light

2015 will a big year for light:

200 year anniversary of Fresnel’s theory that light is a wave

150 year anniversary of Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory of light

100 years since General Relativity showed that light is the center of space and time

50 years since finding the Cosmic Microwave Background, the afterglow of the Big Bang

To support this effort PhysicsWorld has sponsored a wonderful science/art photo competition celebrating light: http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/indepth/48805
