Title: The moon illusion
Authors: Devadas, P
Keywords: moon illusion
Issue Date: Mar-1982
Publisher: Astronomical Society of India
Citation: BASI, Vol. 10, No. 1, pp. 16-17
Abstract: The phenomenon of the enlarged appearance of the sun and the moon at the horizon is attributed to the long distance realized by the vision with the help of a perspective view. The shrunken view of these objects when overhead has been traced to the limitation of binocular vision in the absence of perspective.
