A rainbow occurs when sunlight is refracted, or bent, and reflected inside water droplets in the atmosphere. The angle at which the light is refracted and reflected causes the different colors of the spectrum to be visible. The height of the raindrop determines the size of the rainbow, but typically rainbows are seen forming a semicircle with a radius of about 42 degrees.
