What we are seeing right now is it really now?

<em>"MIT neuroscientists find the brain can identify images seen for as little as 13 </em>milliseconds.<em>"</em>

If that's true, than everything, what we are aware of we are seeing right now it is basically the past - it happened 13 milliseconds ago. Isn't it interesting?

"Because light takes time to get here from there, the farther away 'there' is the further in the past light left there and so we see all objects at some time in the past," explains Floyd Stecker of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

This is just a little of the whole which is discovered. We just think we see the truth which is not truth.

I had ever seen a theory on youtube, It is like scepticism but very interesting

Our brain is dark actually. We dont know how does it work actually from our describing.

I doubt our memory are producted as the rule of Theory of relativity.

I can not find the theory from the psychologist now

But he doubt it as well.

Of course everything we see is in the past, because it takes time for nerve impulses carrying information to be conducted from the eye to the brain, and processed.  This probably takes longer than 13 ms.

I suspect that we can only <em>recognise</em> images seen for only 13 ms because we already have a mental image from a previous exposure and the visual stimulus triggers recall of that image.  Much perception is conditioned by previous experience.

I haven't yet read the article, but I will do so now.
