But it's also no surprise to learn that Armstrong may have got his giant-leap imagery from a NASA memo that circulated shortly before Apollo 11's takeoff.
His imagery leaps out from the 12th century, dripping with blood and featuring steeds carrying warriors wielding swords and lances.
Jenison had read various scholarly works that posited that the leap in the quality of imagery in Dutch master painters of the 16th century had to have been aided by optics: lenses, mirrors and the like.

Magic Leap just updated its developer documentation and a host of new details and imagery are being spread around on Reddit and Twitter, sharing more specifics on how the company's Lumin OS will look like on their upcoming Magic Leap One device.
