The sky appears blue due to the scattering of shorter wavelengths of light by atmospheric particles, with the human eye being more sensitive to blue light. The density of particles decreases in the upper atmosphere, causing the sky color to transition from blue to black in the absence of scattering.
Insights
- The sky appears blue due to the scattering of shorter wavelengths of light by atmospheric particles, with blue being more visible to the human eye than violet or indigo.
- The color of the sky transitions to black when there is no scattering of light due to the decrease in particle density and number in the upper atmosphere, illustrating the impact of atmospheric conditions on the perception of the sky's color.
