A mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays bend to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky. The word comes to English via the French mirage, from the Latin mirari, meaning "to look at, to wonder at". This is the same root as for "mirror" and "to admire".
Mirages can be categorized as "inferior" (meaning lower), "superior" (meaning higher) and "Fata Morgana", one kind of superior mirage consisting of a series of unusually elaborate, vertically stacked images, which form one rapidly changing mirage.
It is caused by a change in the refractive index due to the high temperature near the road and the lower temperature above it. In other words, it is caused by the redirection of the reflected light waves.
This is a physics phenomenon. The density of air is different at different temperatures. Hot air is less dense than cold air. Because the density of air is not constant as the light passes through the hot and cold, the light is bent.
