671.0. "An interesting question." by COGITO::STODDARD (Sancho! My armor!!!) Fri Feb 27 1987 16:57

    The following is an "INTERESTING QUESTION" that I ran across recently.
    I'd like to hear any and all answers.
    
    The situation:
    
    	There is a large sphere in orbit around a planet.  This sphere
    	is hollow.  The inside surface of this sphere is a perfect,
    	spherical mirror.  You are an astronaut floating somewhere in-
    	side the sphere (exact center is possible but may not be assumed).
    	It is dark in the sphere, therefore you turn on a light (not
    	necessarily a coherent light source).
    
    The question:
    
    	WHAT DO YOU SEE?
    
    Enjoy.
    
    						Have a GREAT day!
    							Pete
