    This is worse than when I found out the blobfish is just a normal-ass fish that usually lives under lots of water pressure and had just inflated from the lack of it.

    Can you give any source for this? The text includes 2 key links and the screenshot obviously misses out on them

    I’ve always wondered what it would look like to be able to see outside the visible light spectrum

    Like would it change the colors we can already perceive or would it turn making popcorn into the trippiest shit imaginable, or would it be like Lex Luthor in all-star superman and we suddenly are able to invent new genetic material or some crazy shit.

    Is there at least a new contender for their place?

    but then they can still set colors, that we don’t. Or at least there are some colors they can differentiate between, that we can’t.

    e.g if they have a receptor for orange, yellow and red, then can differentiate between pure orange and orange that is 50% red and 50% yellow.

    So both is true: We have more colors (because of brain-things), but they still have some colors, that we don’t (because of receptors).
