this thread was useful at some previous point? Do you normally post to useless threads? I don't even read them myself. |

Technically, nothing has a color
 , it only looks like it does because of it's absorbition, reflective and refractive properties._____________________

Un, no, they said it looks blue, not that it is blue. And they explained why it "looks" blue but really isn't blue at all. It looks blue because it IS blue "WHY IS THE SKY BLUE? The blue color of the sky is due to Rayleigh scattering. As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red, orange and yellow light is affected by the air. However, much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules. The absorbed blue light is then radiated in different directions. It gets scattered all around the sky. Whichever direction you look, some of this scattered blue light reaches you. Since you see the blue light from everywhere overhead, the sky looks blue. " What do you think "Sky" is. Kevn? What you mean to say is that the "atmosphere" isn't blue. _____________________

Sometimes No, the sun is never yellow. Even if it looks yellow to you. |

Really? Is the sun yellow? The Sun is not yellow. This is what's called a "Red Herring". The Sky is blue, because that blue we see is what we call sky. If you mean the atmosphere is not blue then you are correct. _____________________

If you already had the answer, why did you ask? To prove the point that because something looks a certain color doesn't mean it is that color. |

Actually, being a Main Sequence, class G II star, the sun is indeed yellow.

I keep trying to believe that Kevn doesn't exist but people keep disagreeing with me and quoting him.
