As part of my self-assigned homework I'm looking through the archives. In March 2007 Alexandre Eremenko mentioned seeing stars in the daytime and not seeing airplanes if you didn't know where to look.
This reminded me of the following link:
http://www.msf-usa.org/motion.html
Followed correctly it illustrates how you can miss objects by staring instead of moving your eyes.
This relates to flying but would apply to any time when seeing is critical. - and it's fun.
