Phat photo receptors!

Ever wondered about the evolution of the eye?

Watch the video!

The first animals with anything resembling an eye lived about 550 million years ago. And, according to one scientist's calculations, only 364,000 years would have been needed for a camera-like eye to evolve from a light-sensitive patch.

That was so boring! I can't believe I actually watched that. Is this what passes for entertainment in Scotland? Oh, you poor thing, being there.

Wow,

Pretty gross. All those pretty twinkling eyes are just lenses bulging with water. I puked like 10 times after watching that.
