I'm not sure if we can. We can see it, but are we actually sensing matter when we see it, or just light?

No, our senses do not directly perceive matter. Our senses only detect the physical properties of matter, such as its color, shape, and texture. These properties are a result of our brain's interpretation of the signals received from our senses.
We perceive matter indirectly through our senses. Our senses detect the physical properties of matter, which are then interpreted by our brain to create a perception of the object. This process involves a complex interaction between our senses, brain, and past experiences.
No, we cannot see matter at a microscopic level with our naked eye. However, with the help of technology such as microscopes, we can observe and study the smallest particles of matter.
Our perception of matter is a combination of both objective and subjective factors. The physical properties of matter are objectively detected by our senses, but our brain's interpretation of those signals can be influenced by our personal experiences and biases.
Our perception of matter differs from other animals due to variations in our senses, brain structure, and past experiences. Some animals may have different or more advanced senses than humans, which can lead to a different perception of matter.
