Why Don't Mirrors Facing Each Other Produce Infinite Reflections?

  • Mirrors facing each other do not create infinite reflections.
  • Each reflection is slightly darker than the previous one.
  • Mirrors absorb a fraction of the light energy with every bounce.
  • After a few hundred reflections the light fades into invisibility.
