You Can't See Glass...

Of course you can see it,
if you can't you must be blind,
Sigh.

 

I think that you can see glass, because the only way that you wouldn't be able to see glass is if there is absolutaly no light, but if there is no light, you wouldn't be able to see anything. So i could say that you can't see my house

 

rofl full of shit as always?

 

thats confusing but true you really cant see glass

 

Indeed. The only way we see anything is because objects reflect visible light.

But glass having specific physical properties makes working with it a lot easier.

(As opposed to colorless, odorless gasses...)

 

u cant see it when theres no light or dirt going through it,when i was in a glass labyrinth i hitted a glass so hard -.-

 

you cant see glass if its completely clean..i cant tell ya how many times i wanted to go to the balcony and i hit the glass door

 

you were just not paying attention.....

 

What do you define as being able to see something. Light is reflected off of an object and enters your eye. Glass simply distorts it. Glass has reflective properties, therefore you can see it.

Thats what I believe.

 

I think glass isnt actually transparent, I believe it just radiates a clear colour, As plants radiate Green throught the UV light and chlorophyll. Glass also radiates Impurities and many possibly all dirt substances. However i believe that the Actual colour of glass would not be transparent.

 

Transparent doesn't mean you can't see it, it mean's that light shines completely through it. Not that you can't see it...

 

Glass can be seen because of the impurities like dirt ect on it or the light upon it.

 

tis true.. im looking out the window now haha

*walks into window*

 

vision is based on the reflection of light glass does not reflect 99.9% of light that hits it

 

Well i guess i am blind. Becouse NO one can see the glass itself. Only sun light reflection or items that is attached to the glass for an example water,dust or anything at all that you can attach to the glass.

You can't see glass.

 

if you look on the side off glass you see like a gray/white(ish) color. Isint that the glass? Just out off my mind.

 

you can see some types of glass. For example zircon is glass and you can see it. It just depends on how transparent it is.

 

If we can only see glass due to imperfections, distortions, etc., then doesn't that count as seeing? After all, we cannot see anything but for light bouncing off objects.
