Orange Sky

Written by Nicholas Chan on November 1, 2007 – 4:31 pm -

This was few weeks ago during sunset, around 7pm like that. The sky was orange in colour and it looks so, cool?

See? It’s orange, no photoshop or anything.

You don’t always see orange sky. It was going to rain.

    “If you want another color of the sky, you need bigger particles in the
    air. You need something bigger than molecules in the air—dust.

    Dust particles can be many times larger than air molecules but still
    small enough to not fall out to the ground. If the dust particles are
    much larger than the wavelength of light, the scattered light will be
    neutral in color (i.e., white or gray)—this also happens in clouds
    here on Earth, which consist of water droplets. If the dust particles
    are of approximately the same size as the wavelength of light, the
    situation gets complex, and all sorts of interesting scattering
    phenomena may happen. This happens here on Earth from time to time,
    particularly in desert areas, where the sky may appear white, brown,
    or some other color.”
