Rods and Cones one or the other of them we have very few and they only line the outside of our retena hence why averted vision is the best way to view most faint fuzzys, its because the light is landing on the right eye sensors.
i believe some whales have pupils bigger than my 10" mirror... they must be able to see so much (granted, with 1x magnification).. but still the sky must look awesome to them!
