Why is the sky blue? And why are sunsets so breathtakingly red? 🌤️🌅 It all comes down to something elegant, romantic, and scientific: Rayleigh Scattering — the physics of how sunlight interacts with the atmosphere. ☀️🧬
In this beautifully explained short, we follow the journey of sunlight as it enters Earth’s atmosphere. When light meets particles about the same size as its wavelength, it scatters — bouncing in all directions. Blue light, with its shorter wavelength, scatters more than red, painting our skies a soft pale blue during the day. 💙
But when the sun dips toward the horizon, sunlight travels through more atmosphere, increasing the scattering effect. By the time it reaches your eyes, most of the blue is gone, and what's left is the amber glow of sunset magic. 🔥🌇
This phenomenon — first explained by Lord Rayleigh — is a beautiful reminder that physics isn’t just formulas. It’s the reason the world looks so poetic. ✨
Whether you're a science enthusiast, student, or sky-gazer, this is the perfect crash course in atmospheric optics, light physics, and the cosmic poetry above us.
