Why is the sky blue?
It is a question that has had people stumped for years and is finally answered. Today you will be told why the sky is blue.
It all starts with the Sun. The Sun gives out light that comes in different colours and each colours has a different density and each density relates to a different texture/material that makes the objects its colour.
The next thing that comes into play is the atmosphere. All things with mass are made up of matter and matter has colour. Floating in the air is matter or atoms which are microscopic particles which makes up everything in existence including air.
Air is mostly made up of carbon atoms which as luck would have it is made up of the right material so that it is blue. so as the blue bounces off the carbon atoms the rest of the colours glide by.
This process is similar to how rainbows are made. The light goes on the water in the atmosphere to create the colours of the rainbow.
So in conclusion the Sky is blue because of the properties of the Sun the atmosphere and carbon, and that is why the Sky is Blue.
