  1. You would see the mirror but not your reflection in it.  In effect you would become a vampire!  LOL!!!.


  2. Night vision goggles work by amplifying available light. So whatever they see is already present in the form of light, even if infrared. Since light is present the mirror can reflect it. If there truly is no light, not even infrared, the night vision goggles will see nothing but noise.

  3. What does this have to do with swamping the boogeyman with love and jiggaboo'ng for frogs?

    Can't I just let you folks worry about all the spells??? There is no pointing in having a one man team. Who hurts who, and who cares?

  4. You will see yourself wearing night vision goggles.  The goggles actually do need light to work, but just not as much as your eyes might need

  5. You will see  nothing.

  6. u will definitely see ur self

    but the intensity of ur image bit less

  7. night vision goggles use non-visible light radiations(like uv, infrared) to see things in night. and mirror will reflect them too. so you will see your image quiet clearly. but if there is nothing as light radiation, u see nothing... not even the mirror or the goggles. night vision goggles also need some sort of light to work... it is also used in signboards which glow in night...
