Answer :
The correct answer is **a) William Herschel**.
William Herschel discovered infrared light, which is light "beyond the rainbow," in 1800. He used a prism to split sunlight into its spectrum and then measured the temperature just beyond the red part of the spectrum, finding it was higher, thus discovering infrared radiation.
