Very interesting line of inquiry. Thinking about the boundary effect, I am reminded of the development of the fiber optic laser, and how they found that while the electric dipole transitions between states of 4f electrons were not possible in free ions, in the field of host material (silica glass) the atom are perturbed and can make that transition. (leading to lasing at 1000-2000 nm wavelengths, which turn out to be very useful for a number of fields). I wonder if there is any interaction between the atmosphere and water molecules that changes its absorption behavior. It would be interesting to see if there is any variation in this with different gases.

Good question at 51:37, was wondering about ammonia as well
excellent 🤣 and not woke lol
Интересно из России тут кто нибудь смотрит это?
братва́!
