    I missed the rule that said it needed to be with an unassisted human eye. Even in the post it’s not really “unassisted” since they had to cool it to -218.

    That’s how science works, you use tools and methods to get to “see” what you can’t with your measly human body.

      What rule? I was proposing an alternate response to the initial meme about “you can’t see oxygen/god”.

      Instead of moving the goal posts to make oxygen visible by changing it’s state, why not provide an example of a similarly “invisible” thing that can have profound effects on a person’s ability to be not dead?

        Right that makes sense my bad! But still I think it’s fine to use tools or whatever you prove things, but I now see what you mean about the point of the original deep™ quote.
