I know what you're asking me. You want me to say that there has to be a time delay if there is an order to the reflected light. The wavelengths that came first would arrive first at the camera, therefore we would not see red, which the object is at this moment; we would see blue. This makes sense, but Lessans' claims also make sense when you look at his explanation. It all comes down to who is right. |
Just answer the question, Peacegirl. Seriously. Just answer it.

Lessans' claims do not make sense. As demonstrated by the fact that you can't answer simple questions like the one above without constantly contradicting yourself.
