Thats actually a really interesting question. There are factually a finite and discrete number of points which light can be reflected from so this is an answerable question by someone who is good at physics.

Whatever the wavelength of visible light is, that's your DPI. Reciprocate with the size of the mirror and there's your resolution. Nanomachines.

probs depends on how nice amirror, it's sort of like photo film where the crystals coating the working surface act kinda like 'pixels' but they're so haphazardly strewn about it's hard to count them beyond lots

can we get a picture of the mirror OP, maybe make/model/year

why does he look like he is in the hunger wars in that photo?


E:

Oh that's right the mirror thing.

Anyone ever wonder if he is possessed by a demon? If that demon sees itself in the mirrors for a long enough period of time it gets trapped back inside the mirror? That's why he avoids them at all costs.

House mirrors would be lower than space telescope mirrors. The house mirrors have a front pane of glass half a cm in front of the actual mirror that some of the light bounces off of, blurring the image from the mirror a bit.

usually the silvered side is on the far end of the glass from you cause that way you can't gently caress it up without going thru the glass first, front-surface mirrors get used in serious optical equipment that isn't going to have a lot of stuff getting in and scratching it

Let's stick to the topic at hand. We can talk about anime, and whether it was invented or discovered, after we get this mirror thing sorted out.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.
sin^-1(1.22*(wavelength/diameter)), or thereabouts.

Moreover, the diameter of your pupils increases in the dark so you can see more. Except it's dark so you can't unless you put a light on. But then

Anime was made by aliens to comfort us.
