Why is the Sky Blue Meme?

Skyblue is an NEET who enjoys drinking excessive quantities of Pepsi. She also has an unusually large belly. Chikiababy1 designed this character and her subsequent mod as an indirect response to NuSky, her canonical version.

Answer: Rayleigh scattering explains why the sky is blue. As sunlight hits Earth and hits molecules in its atmosphere, its wavelength is spread out.

Why is the sky blue?

Rayleigh scattering gives the sky its characteristic hue; short wavelengths of blue light scatter more readily than longer wavelengths from other colors of the spectrum and thus get dispersed into different directions, creating the appearance that sunlight reaching our eyes is predominantly blue, though there may also be red, green, or violet scattered among it; our eyes being most sensitive to blue, more of it will reach us than other hues; this also explains why sunrise and sunset bring with them reddened skies as the sun crosses horizons.

While the sky may generally appear blue, on occasion it can look very different. When Radiolab interviewed a girl who had recently learned about color and asked her about it, she responded that it wasn’t blue after being taught it was so. Instead, when she looked up it was white due to the various wavelengths within each rainbow having different effects when entering our atmosphere and scattering light differently.

At noon, the sky appears blue due to sunlight reaching Earth’s atmosphere and being scattered by air molecules. Blue wavelengths tend to be scattered most widely, making them easier for us to detect; violet and red wavelengths don’t scatter as significantly – our eyes being particularly sensitive to blue, this explains why most days see sky that is predominantly blue instead of violet or violet in hue.

As you ascend higher elevations, the sky can take on different hues as there are fewer air molecules to scatter blue light – but our perception is all-too often that of seeing it as being predominantly blue! Our brains become used to seeing it this way; therefore we assume this will always be what it looks like.

Skyblue was created by Chikiababy1 as the granddaughter of Mod!Sky and originally appeared as an NEET exam test-taker. Skyblue is a shy character who struggles to open up, often stutters her speech, and transforms into a chubby form when drinking too much Pepsi, leading her to gain weight quickly and gain her iconic form. Skyblue can sometimes get horny; although she does not fit into typical stereotypes for sexual content.

Blue light

Rayleigh scattering explains why our sky looks blue: when sunlight hits Earth’s atmosphere and hits molecules within our air, light travels back down towards its source and hits gas molecules, where it gets scattered at different rates depending on their wavelength – shorter wavelengths such as blue get scattered more frequently than longer ones such as red due to our eyes being most sensitive to blue wavelengths; we thus perceive a predominantly blue sky when looking upward.

It’s intriguing to consider that blue pigments don’t exist naturally – we must synthesize them from other chemicals, thus explaining why natural objects with blue hues are relatively rare. While salt water, open seas and some minerals might appear blue to us, nothing contributes much to its hue compared to air; sky colors have nothing to do with us either!

One question may arise as to why the sea and open seas also appear blue – are they reflecting the color of the sky? Not necessarily; open water’s hue comes from how different wavelengths of light interact with it and other substances. When sunlight hits water, shorter wavelengths (such as blue) get scattered more than longer ones like red as water molecules absorb them faster while longer wavelengths like red pass straight through.

As sunlight reflects off of clouds in the sky, similar effects occur. That is why we often see some hint of violet or orange at sunrise or sunset due to sunlight hitting clouds at an unusual angle and scattering some of its light into different directions.

Sky colors don’t have any direct bearing on weather patterns, but can provide us with clues as to whether rain is on its way. That is why they are sometimes called weather indicators and people are so fascinated by them; people want to know why the sky is blue.

Rayleigh scattering

Lord Rayleigh developed his law of scattering in the 1800s. According to this law, scattering occurs inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength; shorter wavelengths (such as blue light ) are more likely to be scattered than longer ones such as red light. This phenomenon gives sky its characteristic blue hue.

Atmospheric composition of our planet includes gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Furthermore, particulate matter such as dust, pollutants and water vapor also occupy this layer. When light hits these particles in the air it scatters in various directions – known as Rayleigh scattering; light may also reflect back from them into their original direction of dispersion, creating shadows which we recognize as the horizon at daybreak – contributing to its blue hue.

At night, as soon as the sun has set below the horizon and darkness has settled over the sky, twilight begins. This phenomenon results from light having to pass through more atmospheric layers before reaching us; as a result, more blue light mixes evenly with other colors in its spectrum, appearing whiter to us than before – producing what astronomers refer to as twilight.

Standing atop a mountain top and looking out at the sky may present you with an entirely different experience than when on solid ground. Your vision may include more or less blue depending on where your distance from horizon lies and how much atmospheric particulate matter there is in view.

The color of the sky varies throughout the world due to different levels of atmospheric particulate matter in different locations, as well as variations in sunlight reaching Earth. To mitigate its effects, emissions of pollution should be decreased while simultaneously maintaining an ideal nitrogen-oxygen balance within our atmosphere; to accomplish this task successfully, international treaties or agreements such as Kyoto Protocol need to be in place and respected by everyone worldwide.

Red light

As sunlight passes through Earth’s atmosphere, its light is scattered by gases and particles in its path, with blue light being dispersed more than other colors; this causes it to stand out more and make up most of what we perceive as blue skies. Violet light, however, has shorter wavelengths that don’t disperse as easily and is therefore much less noticeable – hence why skylines often feature this hue.

Sunlight may appear white, but its makeup consists of numerous hues. When combined in various proportions, these colors make up the rainbow; red, green, and blue are the primary ones combining to form white light when added together evenly – hence why computer and TV screens appear white; they’re comprised of small amounts of red, green and blue light.

On a sunny day, your eyes might perceive the sky to be predominantly blue; as you move further from the horizon, its color changes due to Rayleigh scattering; this effect occurs due to how objects moving away from us are absorbed by air molecules in such a way that their light appears red instead. We also witness this same phenomenon during sunrises and sunsets – these hues appear to change as they go lower or higher on the horizon.
