 Rainbow
Rainbow is a natural phenomenon that is so impressive. This phenomenon
often appears after rain. Rainbow is an arc spectrum which is so large and occurs
because the drops are refracted by sunlight. When the sun is shining and the light
passing through water droplets, then you will see a refraction that causes a wide variety
of colors. Light is refracted like light passing through a glass prism.

Other names of the rainbow is a rainbow which is a symptom of optical and

meteorological phenomenon in which light with different colors refracted parallel to
each other into water droplets. You can also see this phenomenon under the very high
and heavy waterfall.

How does rainbow happen in detail? All the happenings begin when the
sunlight passing through the raindrops. Then the light is deflected to the center of the
droplet. The white light, now separated from each other into a spectrum of colors. The
process does not stop there. The colors that have been separated, then separate again
into the very small portions. There is more light separated from each other in the
droplets. Then there are more curved and finally those color form a light curve called a
rainbow.
 Can we make a rainbow? Of course. There are at least two
ways that you can do to make a rainbow. First, you can use a
spray containing water. We know that rainbows occur when
sunlight passing through the raindrops. So, we make our own rain
droplets from the water spray. In the morning or afternoon, spray
water under the sun, then see the water droplets flying. Spray lots
of water and you will see a small rainbow that you can touch
easily.
Second, use pieces of video discs then reflected to the
light of the sun, and navigate to the wall or ceiling of your house.
On the ceiling or the wall, you will see a colorful light that have
the same color with the rainbow.
