Mar 22, Rainbow formation in sky is an agreement of god with mother earth. Jul 24, Roger Llamas Jul 12, I wonder if I can explain to you how utterly amazing this was. I'm writing a book on my mystical experiences. Have you had a mystical experience? Please let me know. Jul 13, We hope you were able to capture a picture! Roger Llamas Jul 13, Jul 15, We appreciate you telling your story, Roger! Sounds like a cool experience! Mar 3, Us too, Coolkid.
Thanks for sharing! Feb 16, We totally agree, Chikenman! Neb Radojkovic Feb 13, However, this doesn't explain why is the rainbow always curved in the same manner. Also, to make a rainbow inside we need a mirror It stands to reason that a rainbow follows some mirror shape in the nature and that can only be a Firmament That in itself is a much bigger knowledge than why the colors appear in the first place.
Feb 14, Feb 7, Thanks for checking out this Wonder of the Day! Georgie Joe Bob Feb 3, Feb 6, Thanks for checking out this Wonder, Georgie Joe Bob! Sylvia Sanders Jan 17, Aubrey Jan 23, Nevertheless, I went right through those colors! Somehow it even seemed like time stood still for a brief moment.
It was awesome, in the true sense of the word! While camping on the shore of a small lake, my wife and I watched the end of a rainbow move across the surface of the water.
We estimated it was moving at approximately 20 mph. The strangest thing was the waters surface appeared to look as if it was roiling or turbid under the rainbows foot print as it moved past us. After the storm subsided, two very clear rainbows were visible with a third, very faint rainbow above them. Quite a sight! Another way to remember the colours of the rainbow is: Richard of York gave blood in vein….. I understand the science behind this but we should not forget that God set the bow in the sky as a reminder that He will never flood the entire earth again.
He is an Amazing God! I watched a rainbow take form. I saw the rainbow as it arched then I watched it coming across the street then it landed right in front of me! I held out my arm and it reflected all the colors.. It was the most amazing thing to happen. The moonlight was almost daylight bright, and the moonbow was a ghostly pale version of the daytime rainbow. It was a very moving moment, breathtakingly beautiful! I saw the end of a rainbow once as well. I was waiting for some explanation to this in this article.
I actually saw the end of a rainbow once. Driving home from work one afternoon I noticed the end of a rainbow seemed to be coming down right at the Hi-U Apartments where I lived. Once inside, I looked out my second-story back window and there it was, across the street, in a trucking yard, a mist of rainbow colors. Never could figure it. The end of a rainbow in a trucking yard across the street from a Commerce City, Colorado flop house.

Finding Dimes? Sunlight is made of many different wavelengths, or colours, that travel at different speeds when passing through a medium. This causes the white light to split into different colours.
Longer wavelengths appear as red and shorter wavelengths appear as blue or violet. We see the colour spectrum of the rainbow as the light passes through the raindrop at different angles of approximately two degrees, from red to violet. This is not a true spectrum as the colours mix and blur throughout the spectacle.
The angle of scatter from raindrops is different for everyone which means that every rainbow is unique to the observer. However, for the observer to see a rainbow, they must be in a specific position relative to the sun and water droplets -. So when the light exits the water droplet, it is separated into all its wavelengths. The light reflecting back to you, the observer with the Sunlight coming from behind you, from the water droplets will appear separated into all the colors of the rainbow!
Violet will be on the bottom and red on the top. A secondary rainbow appears if the sunlight is reflected twice inside the water droplets. Secondary rainbows are fainter, and the order of the color is reversed, with red on the bottom. Credit: Leonardo Weiss via Wikimedia Commons. Sometimes you can see another, fainter secondary rainbow above the primary rainbow. The primary rainbow is caused from one reflection inside the water droplet.
