Why is the sunrise orange or white?

At lower altitudes and low sun (dawn/dusk) the sunlight has to shine through more atmosphere. The Sun emits electromagnetic radiation, of which white light is a part. White light can be split into the colours of the rainbow. The Blue end of the spectrum is the shorter wavelength, and the Red end is the longer wavelength. The shorter/longer the wavelength the less/more penetrating they are. e.g. you cannot see light/uv rays (shortwavelength) through a brick wall, but you can feel IR(heat)( longwavelength) through a brick wall. So the longer wavelengths from the Sun (yellow/orange/red) will penetrate further through the atmosphere. Hence you see this colour light with a setting/rising Sun. Contrast this , when the Sun is high in the sky (midday) sunlight has less atmosphere to penetrate through, so it follows that the shorter wavelengths can pass through and the light changes to white. Do not confuse this with 'Blue Sky' that is a different phenomenon.

How does an aurora develop?

The aurora borealis (northern lights) form when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare penetrate the earth's magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. These collisions result in countless little bursts of light, called photons, which make up the aurora.

Do the sun's tanning rays penetrate water and to what degree?

All the sun's rays penetrate water, but each color penetrates to a different depth. The colors at the upper end of the light spectrum, especially the UV (ultraviolet) that causes tanning, penetrate deepest. The UV portion of the sun's light can penetrate into clear water for a hundred feet or more at midday. The safest way to avoid overexposure is to remember that if you can see the sunlight, it may cause sunburn, and to limit exposure accordingly or perhaps wear a T-shirt or wet-suit.
