I Think That Just Happend to Me

I'm unusually sure that just happend to me because I really cant explain the random flash of pure white that was outlined by what can be aproximatly described as a dark, muddy purple on the lower left side of my field of vision. When it happend like two minutes ago I was confused as to what I just saw. I knew it wasn't just the usual eye floater and not the random "eye confetti /glitter" caused by looking at monochromatic light but I then suddenly remembered having watched a Veritasium video that mentioned Astronauts commonly experiancing random flashes of light caused by cosmic rays hitting their retina. I don't know if its even possible on earths surface since we have the atmosphere and all but still, unless i find a better explanation I'll remain convinced that I was a victim of a one in 100 chance cosmic ray attack. 2A0A:A543:2032:0:DD20:9782:9888:2846 (talk) 16:20, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
