The mirror, from your bathroom to the side of your car. they’re everywhere, and do one very simple job; reflect. welcome to facts only.Today we’re going to answer a question that you’ve probably never considered but once you hear it you won’t stop until you watch this video. Let’s get it on!
In Grenada, Spain way back in 2004, 2 researchers; Raymond L. Lee, Jr. and Javier Hernández-Andrés conducted an experiment in one of the Science Museums most popular attractions; the mirror tunnels.
The mirror tunnels is a contraption that’s contains 2 mirrors facing each other with 2 eye holes cut out for the intrigued visitor to peer into.
The researchers found that when the reflection of the mirrors are bounced back and forth over 50 times, the green wavelength becomes the predominant wavelength we can see.
In turn we can start to see the greenish truth beneath and for all us science nerds the green wavelength is 552-nanometers or more vaguely anywhere between 495 and 570 nanometers.
So,The mirror you have stuck to the front of that wardrobe is actually nothing more than a Soda-lime silica glass substrate with a silver backing.This soda-lime mixture is actually what gives it its true color, which is actually green, yes green.
Your silvery wonder is green, a faint green. I grant you but green, none the less.
The humble mirror is nothing more than a greenish block of soda-lime with a shiny back.
One thing is true though, I really want to go to Grenada and see this mirror tunnel for myself.
