Yes, according to some sources, Superman's vision abilities extend to the microscopic level, allowing him to see atoms.
Superman's powers have varied across different iterations of the character, but a common theme is his incredibly advanced vision. This vision isn't just limited to seeing great distances or through objects; it often includes:
- Microscopic Vision: The ability to magnify his vision to see extremely small objects, including atoms. This gives him an unparalleled understanding of the composition of matter.
- Telescopic Vision: The opposite of microscopic vision, allowing him to see great distances, even across galaxies.
- X-Ray Vision: The power to see through solid objects (except lead), allowing him to perceive internal structures.
- Infrared Vision: The ability to see heat signatures.
- Thermal Vision: Similar to infrared, allowing him to detect temperature differences.
The extent and specifics of Superman's powers are often subject to change based on the storyline or writer, but his microscopic vision, enabling him to see individual atoms, is a feature described in some character interpretations.
