--==Please feel free to correct any premise I propose, because I am almost certain I have something wrong.==--
Can we see plasma? The reason I ask is because, to my understanding, plasma is a state of matter where it is so hot that it is stripped of electrons. Since light and all other electromagnetic energy is detectable when it passes through a medium of electrons (correct me please, I know I got something wrong so far), if plasma does not have electrons, would it still be able to emit some sort of electromagnetic energy?
I am sure I missed a bunch of vital points and I can almost hear the facepalms of physicists and the sort, but remember, I am just asking a question, and not asserting anything as truth.
