"The sunlight when interacting with the Earth's atmosphere produces the blue color that is visible in the sky."
"Marc Chenard, a meteorologist from the National Weather Service, explains that the visible light spectrum consists of a range of colors, from red to violet. Although light appears white when all colors are mixed, when it reaches Earth, interactions with molecules and atmospheric particles cause some colors to become more dominant."
Factors that Cause the Sky to Appear Blue.
"Each color in the visible light spectrum has a different wavelength. For example, red and orange light have longer wavelengths compared to blue and violet, which have shorter wavelengths."
According to Chenard, shorter waves tend to be scattered or absorbed by air and gas molecules in the Earth's atmosphere. These molecules, the majority being nitrogen and oxygen, scatter blue and violet light evenly through a phenomenon known as Rayleigh scattering.
The Reasons Why We See the Sky as More Blue.
According to Ed Bloomer, an astronomer from the Royal Observatory Greenwich in England, although purple light is also scattered in the atmosphere, there are several factors that make us see the sky as more blue than purple.
"First, sunlight has more blue components than purple, which results in more blue light being scattered in the atmosphere. Additionally, the human eye tends to be less responsive to purple light, so we are more likely to see blue rather than purple in the sky."
The translated text is: "The scattered blue light also plays a unique role in the color of the sun during sunrise and sunset. When the sun sets, sunlight must travel a longer distance through the atmosphere before reaching the human eye. By the time it reaches the eye, the blue light has already scattered, leaving the colors orange, red, and yellow to depict the beauty of the sunset."
