Sky Blue
Please help me on the famous question why is the sky blue?
So, the sky is blue because blue color from the sunlight gets scattered the most during the day. But what about other colors? do they pass through the atmosphere or bounce off? if they pass through the atmostphere, then why don’t we see them?
And another question about the blue color. The reason the blue color gets scattered the most is because it has a shorter wavelength? why? why do blue get scattered the most just because it has a shorter wavelength? Is it because that’s just how nature works or is there reason for it?
All colors of the spectrum are scattered and all colors are transmitted through the atmosphere. It’s just that the wavelengths in the blue range are scattered more than the wavelengths in other parts of the spectrum. The reason we see the blue is that there is just more blue than anything else. If you mix all the colors of light you get white light, so what you really have is white with a little more blue in it than the other colors. Incidentally, the blue scattering is one of the reasons that the sunlight is a little on the yellow side, especially at sunset or sunrise. You remember seeing how yellow the sun looks coming up or setting. The light is lacking a little bit of blue when it gets to your eyes. And the reason that blue is scattered more is simply that the particles in the atmosphere are the right size to reflect blue better than other colors of the spectrum.
