After it rains. the light goes through the clouds, which are acting like a prism.
A rainbow is created when sunlight is refracted, or bent, and scattered in raindrops, splitting the light into its different colors. Each color in the rainbow corresponds to a different wavelength of light, creating the beautiful spectrum we see.
If it is sunny after the rain has stopped, you are likely to see a rainbow in the sky.
A rainbow appears in the opposite direction of the sun because the light is being refracted, reflected, and dispersed by raindrops in the atmosphere. When sunlight enters a raindrop and is refracted, it is then reflected off the back of the raindrop and dispersed, creating a rainbow that appears on the opposite side of the sky from the sun.
You can see a rainbow when sunlight is refracted, reflected, and dispersed through water droplets in the air, such as after a rain shower or near a waterfall. The most common time to see a rainbow is when the sun is low in the sky, at around a 42-degree angle from your eyes.
When sunlight passes through raindrops, the rain drops act like a glass prism. The sunlight is split into the rainbow colours in the sky, and a rainbow appears.
You see a rainbow because you want to, and you do because you feel like it.
No, as you move the rainbow you see moves too. No, because the bit of the rainbow you see is part of a circle and circles have no end. However, you can direct someone else to the place where YOU see the end of your rainbow (but THEY will not see it when they get there).
There is no color your eye can see that is not in the rainbow.

No, different people may see slightly different rainbows depending on their viewing angle and distance from the rainbow. Each person's perspective will affect the portion of the rainbow they are able to see.
No. In order to see a rainbow in front of you, there must be a source of light behind you, and the rainbow you see will only have the colors of the source in it.
One doesn't have to be at any specific angle to see a rainbow. What is Dependent on seeing the rainbow is the location of the rain, and sun relative to you. The sun is always behind a rainbow when seen. So you would be in front of the rainbow, rain, and the sun. Also, No two people see the same rainbow unless a picture or video was taken of the rainbow.
When you see a rainbow, you can enjoy its beauty and take a moment to appreciate the natural phenomenon.
A rainbow is a circle. What we see from almost any point on earth is a semicircle, or just a part of the rainbow. We can only see it from horizon to horizon, or just an arc of the whole rainbow. Occasionally we can see a full circle of a rainbow in the sky surrounding the sun, and sometimes multiple ones.
