“There are faint stars in the night sky that you can see, but only if you look to the side of where they shine. They burn too weakly or are too far away to be seen directly, even if you stare.

You can see it, but only out of the corner of your eye.” IfsLooksLightEyeNightStarsSidesSkyTruth IsShiningCornersCellsStaringSensitiveFar AwayNight SkyPeripheryStars In The Night Sky Book:A Madman Dreams of Turing Machines Source: A Madman Dreams of Turing Machines
