Our ancestors could well have seen these 7 stars up to 100 kya. Indigenous Australians probably have eyesight most similar to our hunter gatherer ancestors, at 6:14 (approx. 20:46), much better than ours. Quoting from an article on their eyesight: > As an example of how extraordinary the vision can be, Professor Taylor recounted how astronomers were looking at records from the 1840s into Aboriginal descriptions of constellations of stars. > "The astronomers just couldn't work out how these constellations worked," he said. > "They talked to me then they went back with binoculars and suddenly they could pick out all the missing stars that the Aboriginal people could see just with the naked eye." https://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-04-08/prince-harry-may-struggle-to-keep-up-with-aboriginal-super-sight/6378066 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-04-08/prince-harry-may-stru...
