That's an interesting question.
We only see things that block or reflect the light hitting our eyes. We cannot see the wind, because air is "transparent"; light goes right through it.
Or does it?
It turns out that all light does NOT "go right through" air. Some frequencies of light are absorbed by air. So I guess it's a lucky thing for us that our eyes work in the ONE band of frequencies that are transparent.
Some scientists don't think it's "lucky"; our eyes wouldn't have been so useful if they worked in other frequencies of light. The likely explanation is that over a couple of billion years, life on Earth evolved to be able to see just the kinds of light that would be useful to us.
Our planet and we grew up together; we see these frequencies because we are adapted to our planet.

How wind tunnels work?
a wind tunnel works by turning on a gigantic fan in a round tunnel they place the car SUV etc. in the tunnel and turn the fan on to see if its aerodynamic since we cant see air they put a fog machine to make stream of fog to see the aerodynamics of the car the faster the fog passes the more aerodynamic it is
Why the wind is never seen?
The movement of atoms (wind) cant be seen because the atoms are to small for the human eye.
