Optical Illusion #3 (Disappearing Light)

Explanation by geek.com: "This GIF is interesting not only because things literally disappear from your vision, but because we don’t know exactly why it happens yet. Stare at the middle and the yellow dots blink out. Look to the side, and they come back. Science is still trying to nail down the exact cause, but there are several good hypotheses. It may be a case of your brain filling in the peripheral vision incorrectly because it is overwhelmed by the spinning motion. Alternatively, it could be an adaptive strategy to facilitate better perception of movement"
