It is physically impossible to reach the end of a rainbow.

But in fairy tale stories you may come across people finding it. Especially in Ireland with the legend of the leprechaun. Hope this helps.

It is a color pattern of prisms due to the interaction of sunlight and the water moisture in the air . Usually after the precipitation of rain , sunlight shines through the water and creates a prism that bends white light into colors . Therefore , the colors bended are shown in the sky , until the water is evaporated , which causes the rainbow to disappear .

Technically , there is no end of the rainbow , but in some legends or folklores , there might be . Good luck finding your pot of gold ! :D

Where do you find the rainbow with the gold pot at the end of it?

Realistically, There is no end to a rainbow, for the reason that a rainbow is a circle of continuous light. Unrealistically, a leprechaun hide gold at the end of a rainbow, at the time no one knowing that there is no end to a rainbow. Why gold? It was a pot of gold because gold was a precious metal and Ireland has no gold, unless imported. Gold being higher than silver in the market. A pot of gold meant lot of $$$


Is there an end of a rainbow?

Answer #1: No, it is not possible to get to the end of a rainbow. A rainbow is actually a full circle of color in the sky. But, from our perspective on Earth, we only see the top half and the two ends of the arch only appear to touch the ground.__________Here is a twist to the answer that will surprise you. The answer is yes AND no. You cannot get to the end of the rainbow that you are looking at. But in fact you might BE at the end of the rainbow (at least the apparent end of it) that someone else is looking at a mile or two away. If that person moved to where you are, he would see the rainbow that you see, and not the one he saw at his former location. The rainbow is NOT one single event happening at one specific location. The atmosphere is acting like a huge prism, and the appearance of 'the' rainbow depends as much on your location as it does on the location of the sun and the right amount of moisture in the air.__________Answer #2: Yes, it is possible to get to the end of a rainbow. By "the end of the rainbow", I mean a specific location on the ground where the arc of a rainbow touches down. Ironically enough, there is even something there that resembled a "pot of gold".There may or may not be a mechanistic explanation congruent with our cultural tradition of physics that is adequate for this, but nonetheless, it is real, and the world doesn't really care what we think is possible and is not possible.I have been to the end of a rainbow, in Europe as a military helicopter pilot, and while at the end of the rainbow I observed the phenomenon carefully. The factual nature of what myself and other professionals witnessed at the end of that rainbow has always provided me with some liberating laughter when I read the technical explanations written with such certainty by many. Take everything we scientists say with a grain or two of salt.

Where does a rainbow start?

There is no start, finish, beginning, or end of a rainbow. It's actually a full circle. When you're standing at ground level, a big part of the rainbow is normally below the horizon where you can't see it. But from an airplane in flight, it can happen that the full circle is visible.
