I want to study light > reflection, refraction, etc... Why not buy a laser & go to town:) I have a very basic understanding. The EM spectrum isn't new to me. I do however have a few Q's. Where to order? I assume I want a stationary laser? Or is it easier (cheaper) to set of a handheld laser...

lol Well I guess I'm the only one who finds it interesting... In physics though, is there anything to explain this? Perhaps, the basic reflective property is texture itself? Is "reflection" a texture though?

I just want to know how our eyes/brain can take 50 objects & make a picture for us. I want to know how photons of light illuminate outside these rays of light I see upon squinting. Perhaps the rays I see are a distortion? I want to know if Euclid's idea that light travels in rays was true or...

So I was laying in bed the other night looking at the street light through the window. Upon squinting at this light, I began to notice rays. Further studying this phenomena, I noticed that every ray travels directly to my eye. This was really cool. I coud bring my index finger up near the...
