! A lensball is a polished spherical ball of radius $R=5 cm$, made of glass of refractive index value $n_{glass}=1.5$. The cathedral is 90 meters high, and you stand with the lensball 400 meters from the cathedral. You look at the cathedral through the lens, your eye being at 20 cm from the center of the lens. What would you expect to see?
! A lensball is a simple physical system: a sphere of glass of refractive index $`n=1.5`$ and of radius $`R=5\;cm`$.
!
! A ball lensball is placed in front of a painting. Depending on the position of the observer or the camera,
! the optical system (the sequence of simple optical elements crossed by light between the physical object
! and the observed image) that forms the image differs.
!
! Observe the 3 images of the painting given by the lensball :

! What is the scientifical framework you choose to study this problem ?
!</summary>
! * All the characteristic sizes in this problem are much bigger than the wavelength of the visible radiation ($\lambda\approx5\mu m$), so I deal with this problem in the framework of geometrical optics, and in the paraxial approximation in order to characterize the image.
!
! * The cathedral sustains an angle of $arctan\dfrac{90}{400}=13°$ from the lensball. This value seems reasonable to justify at first order the use of the paraxial approximation (_we usually consider that angles of incidence would not exceed 10° on the various simple optical element encountered between the objet (here the cathedral) and the final image (retina of the eye or matrix sensor of a camera_).

! 1) The light crosses a spherical refracting surface $`DS1`$ with characteristics :
! $`\overline{S_1C_1}=+|R|=+5\;cm`$ , $`n_{ini}=1`$ and $`n_{fin}=1.5`$.

! acts like a spherical mirror of characteristics : $`\overline{S_2C_2}=-|R|=-5\;cm`$,
! $`n=1.5`$.
!
! 3) Finally the light crosses back the first interface of the lensball that acts
! like a spherical refracting surface those characteristics are :
! $`\overline{S_3C_3}=+|R|=+5\;cm`$ , $`n_{ini}=1.5$ and $n_{fin}=1`$.
