Reflection is the optical property of glass that allows this phenomenon.
Light can be carried along a distance within a transparent material by means of total internal reflection, with a minimum loss of amplitude.
(incident angle>critical angle light is reflected/bounces off)
When waves of light (and other electromagnetic radiation) come into contact with a surface or other boundary that does not absorb the radiation's energy, the waves bounce off the surface and back into space. The angle of incidence and angle of reflection are equal when light rays strike a flat surface, and the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the surface normal all lie in the same plane. There are three categories of reflection: glossy, specular, and diffuse.
