As everyone knows, rainbows are just light. But why can you never get to one, even if you walk for miles? Here's why.
- Sunlight shines onto raindrops, causing it to refract. (Split apart)
- When the sunlight refracts, it splits into the seven colors of the rainbow, creating a rainbow.
- When you try to walk to the rainbow, steps 1 and 2 repeat with raindrops farther away from you, causing the rainbow to be the same distance away from you when you weren't walking.
- As long as you keep walking, step 3 repeats.
That is so cool!
