At what speed does an object become, in effect, invisible to the naked human eye?
Question by Kitajima: At what speed does an object become, in effect, invisible to the naked human eye?
Also, at what speed does an object become blurred or distorted to the naked human eye?
Impossible? Speed of light?
I’m not so sure…
What about a bullet from a gun? The naked eye can’t see that… I’m fairly sure that bullet isn’t moving at the speed of light.
Or I’ve seen footage of animals that pounce on their prey so fast the human eye can’t see it. I doubt they’re moving at the speed of light as well.

I would assume at the speed of light. That seems to me as the only speed that could potentially distort the image.
