It's based on the individuals perception. A group of people can see the same thing and each will perceive it differently.

Observation has to be based on individual perception. If enough people observe and report the same, then it can be considered a constant.

According to philosophers non-scientific observation is always colored by the observer, whereas with scientific observation (i.e., measurable by mathematics) the observation is almost never based on the individual's perception (except colors and musical notes strangely, which are governed by vibrational math formulas); nonetheless many scientists in the past have tried to ignore the actual scientific phenomena and make a conclusion based on their philopshy (flat earth, earth the center of the solar system, creationism, evolution, etc.)

Its completely based on the individuals perception, bcuz every person observes differently and hence ends up percieves differently, leading to their own individual conclustion. So there is never a constant in such cases.

This is just my opinion though, but i hope it helps.
