There's also blue in the sky. That's literally you seeing the air

Actually that's us seeing light.

Edit: specifically, the light wavelength that remains at passing through the atmosphere. We're but seeing the air still, we're just seeing the color that makes it through to us. Saying that's the air itself would be like saying you see the cities filtration system by looking at the clean water that comes from a faucet.

A better example of actually seeing air would be to freeze it, and seeing the literal frozen air.

Light bouncing off of air molecules, yes. That's how seeing things works

Do you see your own eyes? Like without a mirror

I was extremely baked when I asked that but I think it was a question about how some light will reflect off your eye into your eye therefore you're seeing your own eyes.

I guess having floaters, or that weird effect of seeing your white blood cells in the capillaries on your retina would probably count haha
