In observing the moon to see what kind of afterimages it made I discovered the method of how the afterimages moved. I noticed that the moon's afterimage would drift toward my eye level. When the white paper was to my lower left the afterimage would drift upward at about a 45 degree angle toward my eye level, or center of vision, and when it was to my lower right it would drift upward toward my eye level (again at this approximate 45 degree angle). I then put the white paper in front of me but about waist level and it drifted upward in a straight line (again toward my eye level). This movement toward our center of vision indicates that we are the center of our universe. Not only did it always drift upward toward my eye level but always toward my center of vision. |
