    These balls aren’t the same color. Take a sample using the eyedropper tool in photoshop or something similar. Each ball isn’t even a single color. The only thing they have in common is the white dot in the center and the black used to create a shadow.

      It’s poorly compressed, but the balls are all about the same color if you zoom in and look closely.

      Obviously, they are shaded to look 3D so they aren’t a solid color. The illusion is real, though, and they all appear to be very different colors to your eye when zoomed out.

    Unfortunately, because this image is more compressed than the core of Jupiter, the balls are no longer exactly the same color

      I found a better example (below). This optical illusion definitely works, the image by op just sucks.

        As someone who is somewhat colorblind I can confirm they’re all exactly the same color.

        I just don’t know what color that is
