(To reproduce, use a really big stable mass (either enter it by hand or use the OMFG button and click several time at the same position without moving your mouse) and launch at fast speed a tiny particle in an approximately tangent direction of a circle centered on the big mass.)
- hughes 12y agoThat's a Moiré pattern and is an interaction of the resolution of your display and the proximity of the lines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moir%C3%A9_pattern http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moir%C3%A9_pattern
- p4bl0 12y agoThat was quick! Thanks! I didn't know that Moiré pattern could appear on a screen "without" a second grid (or rather, I didn't realize that the pixels of my display could serve as the second grid, which is kind of obvious now that you said it).
