For example, seeing lights as flickering when there are strong winds. Is there something conceptually wrong in considering lights as particles?
In: Physics
When wind hits something, it’s really the molecules in the air hitting it – and light is so small and fast that it almost always misses air molecules.
It’s a little like bullets flying through the air, but bullets are affected by wind and gravity – light is small enough not to hit the air molecules (usually) but it actually still bends with gravity
