Shocking! Had no idea we're soooo limited. I've heard of some limited number of people with better than 20/20 vision. I wonder if there are people with more high-rez receptors over a broader area of the eye's surface to see more off-center than what other people can see too?
Evolution and survival skills demand different receptors in the gene pool e.g. the ability to see many shades of green in the field to recognize prey etc.. It's no wonder that something as linguistically complicated as color will mess with our perceptual boundaries and produce different responses to the photo of the dress:
What I really enjoyed was talking with people who saw blue and then said to them, "But you don't see white and gold?"and then they would suddenly see different colors - priceless. Let's face it, reality, or at least the reporting of it, is entirely malleable.
If the intelligence behind the UFO phenomenon sees magic as a relevant mode of communication then we're in serious trouble and will just be made fun of for many 100's of years to come.
Does the resolution drop progressively from that moon center out to "what angle" of vision coverage? What does the "resolution curve" look like?
The way it goes down is that 90% of what you see is a pre-recorded image playback from your brain, so as you travel familiar byways and highways your brain is just filling in the background wth previousy laid down conceptual video tracks as your camera head tilts and swivels, with only what the fovea centralis concentrates on bringing a direct, live image of 10% of reality to the perceptual network.
Looking is also more akin to film with a frames per second unfolding of a series of still images that are being experienced as the illusion of motion - sophisticated seamless processing systems that we are. In some cases of tumours on the optic nerve on in certain parts of the brain reality may be experienced in slow motion or perhaps hyperspeed. The algorithms of our brain do process at a finite speed so consider what else may be getting missed by us when we encounter a life form, or a stimulus that is traveling at a rate of speed that perhaps we can't quite make out. Do we substitute something from the library of socialized memory and say things like, "It was triangular shaped," and in another era, "It was saucer shaped," or similarly, "I know what I saw and it was definitely an airship!" Such is the nature of sight & the history of UFO witness testimony. That doesn't mean you can negate the history of what was witnessed, but it helps to explain a few discrepancies and oddities.
