Feynman's Nobel Prize Winning Technique

The sunset you watched last night wasn't real. By the time the sun touched the horizon, the physical sun had already dropped completely below the curve of the Earth. What you saw was a ghost — a two-minute optical illusion created by sixty miles of atmosphere bending light around the planet like a giant invisible lens. Richard Feynman called this one of the most beautiful tricks in all of physics. Not because it looks pretty. Because it proves, every single evening, that your eyes are showing you a version of reality that is slightly wrong. In this video we break down exactly how atmospheric refraction works, why the sun appears one full sun-width higher than it actually is, and what this means for GPS systems, space telescopes, and our understanding of light itself. This is real physics. Explained simply. The way Feynman would have wanted it.
