ABSTRACT:
An illumination device and an aircraft having an illumination device which by a corresponding selection of the wavelength and of the irradiation angle prevents a person situated in the aircraft from becoming tired. The illumination device is arranged in an aircraft such that light given off by the illumination device can be irradiated onto the retinohypothalamic tract of a person who is present in the aircraft in a predetermined position, and the illumination device is designed to give off light at a predetermined wavelength, which light achieves the desired effect.
