[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1505017, member: 74902"] I am sorry, but you are missing the physics of the matter altogether. You would have to read the Wiki link. Air acts just the same as water when light passes thru it. You know when you shoot a fish with a bow when bowfishing, how you have to aim where the fish really isn't? This has to do to with light refraction because water is denser than air. The same happens when the light from a target image passes thru denser air on the way to your eye. The target is not really where it appears to be. This effect on the targets apparent location can and frequently does happen with no mirage at all. [/QUOTE]
