Yes, a mirage is an optical illusion caused by the refraction of light as it passes through layers of air at different temperatures. This phenomenon often occurs on hot days when the ground heats the air above it, creating a gradient that bends light rays. As a result, distant objects, such as water or the sky, may appear distorted or shifted, leading observers to see images that aren't actually present.
