Have everyone ever saw a mirage in you real life? I saw it when I was little, it was beatiful and fantasy which i can’t realized it is not real at the first time. And for me it was a wonderful memory. But I think maybe there are a lot of people never saw mirage before. Then you will happy to know that IFLScience brings us word that thousands of people in China this week reported seeing a large “floating city” in the sky that actually turned out to be a Fata Morgana, which is a rare type of mirage.
Now i will share a little information about mirage.Mirages are real phenomena of atmospheric optics, caused by strong ray-bending in layers with steep thermal gradients.Essentially these mirages occur whenever the sun heats up a layer of the atmosphere even as the layer below it remains at a cooler temperature.
