00:00Have you ever seen a rainbow after a rainstorm and wondered, why does that happen?
00:06Rainbows show up when sunlight hits raindrops in the air.
00:11The light bends or refracts as it enters the raindrop, then reflects inside the drop.
00:18And then it bends again as it leaves the drop.
00:21This process splits the white sunlight into a full spectrum of colors.
00:27Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, just like in a prism.
00:36Each color bends at a slightly different angle, forming a circular arc of colors.
00:40But we usually only see a half circle, because the ground blocks the rest.
00:46To see a rainbow, the sun must be behind you and rain in front of you.
00:51That's why you can try to chase a rainbow.
00:55It moves with your point of view.
00:57So next time you spot a rainbow, you'll know it's sunlight dancing through raindrops.
