The sky appears blue due to a phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering. When sunlight enters Earth's atmosphere, it collides with air molecules, scattering shorter wavelengths of light, such as blue, more than the longer wavelengths like red. As a result, when we look up during the day, we see the scattered blue light dominating the sky. In contrast, during sunrise and sunset, the sun's light passes through a thicker layer of atmosphere, scattering away the shorter wavelengths and allowing the longer red wavelengths to become more prominent.
Firey red with a hint of orange and a deep purple by the horizon
No, temperature does not directly cause the sky to be blue. The blue color of the sky is primarily due to Rayleigh scattering, where shorter wavelengths of light (blue) are scattered more than longer wavelengths (red) when sunlight passes through the Earth's atmosphere. While temperature can influence atmospheric conditions and weather, the blue appearance of the sky is a result of light physics rather than temperature itself.
the sky has always been blue the only time it is not blue is at night
sky blue , black
From the Land of the Sky-Blue Water was created in 1909.
Sunsets would likely appear orange or red if the molecules in the sky were orange instead of blue. This is because the scattering of light would cause shorter blue wavelengths to disappear, leaving longer red and orange wavelengths prominent in the sky during sunset.
its white.. but the sky reflects the ocean wich makes it blue (the sky is blue)
the sky is blue because of the angle of the sun. the angle of the sun changes the angle of the white light coming from the sun. at sunrise or sunset the red wavelengths reach us instead of the blue wavelengths.
redfoo is 36 and sky blue is 27.
why do we see spectacular events in the sky like rainbows,red sunset and blue sky
No, the colors sky blue and red are not related in terms of their origin or composition. Sky blue is a light blue color often associated with the color of the sky, while red is a primary color that is much bolder and warmer in tone. Each color has its own unique properties and characteristics.
Yes! Sky blue and red foo are related! Red foo is sky blue's uncle!
It's blue
The sky appears blue instead of violet because of the way Earth's atmosphere scatters sunlight. Blue light is scattered more easily than violet light, causing the sky to appear blue to our eyes.
This question isn't a joke, as most have perceived it so far. In actuality, the sky IS purple, or at least violet, it just doesn't appear as such. (Separate User) The reason we see blue instead of purple is because our eyes perceive blue better then purple. To be precise the sky contains 50 times more purple then blue. The way the air particles in the sky work is that they reflect light and change it's direction toward us. The shorter the wavelength, the more likely it is to be reflected. (purple is the shortest that we can see, red is the longest)
