He explained the parallel shadows issue, saying that scientists can reproduce the effects on Earth. Everyone has seen the phenomenon themselves where the parallel lines appear non-parallel.

Ojha also said that you can make lines do weird things when trying to reduce a three-dimensional situation into a two-dimensional plane. Artists have done so for centuries.
