Why we see through glass is because it is transparent and light can pass through it. It cannot pass through a paper and it is opaque. In this episode, the reason for optical transparency is explained from the basics with the help of analogies and animations. The physics behind this is comprehensively explained in simple language with the aim that a common man without any scientific background should also be able to understand.
