The astrophysicist should look for the wavelength of 1.094 * 10^-6 m

Using the  Rydberg equation

1/λ = R(1/nf^2 - 1/ni^2)

ni = 6, nf = 3

Where R is the Rydberg constant, 1.097 * 10^7 m^-1

1/λ =  1.097 * 10^7 (1/9 - 1/36)

1/λ =  1.097 * 10^7 (0.1111 - 0.0278)

1/λ =  1.097 * 10^7 (0.0833)

1/λ = 913801 m^-1

λ = 1.094 * 10^-6 m
