Deep History on Instagram: "Polarization is the process of aligning the vibrations of light (or other electromagnetic waves) to a single direction. Normally, light waves vibrate in multiple directions as they travel. But when light is polarized, those vibrations are limited to just one plane! This can occur naturally-like when sunlight scatters through the atmosphere-or artificially, using tools like polarized sunglasses, which reduce glare by blocking light waves not aligned with a specific ori
