So it depends on how much the light rays diverge/converge
Ah yeah. My problem was I was focused on the distance instead of the behavior of light. That also explains why at the DMV they can test your vision with a machine that isn’t fifty meters long. The machine only has to recreate how much the light rays diverge/converge.

I think the reason that’s a bit of a mind **** for me is because even though I know on paper that the light obviously has to travel to my eyes it seems like my eyes are reaching out to the object that’s reflecting the light.

You did a great job of explaining that. Thank you.
