Red color passes through the atmosphere and refracts toward the moon
What light color passes through the atmosphere and refracts toward the moon?
Red light color passes through the atmosphere and refracts toward the moon.
The straight red arrow passing from the surface through the atmosphere represents the fraction of the emitted infrared radiation that passes into space through the atmosphere without change. Red-colored light is scattered very little. However it is refracted or bent inward towards the Moon. Red light that hits the Moon is reflected back toward Earth, therefore we see the Moon glowing red during totality.
Red is the color at the end of the visible spectrum of light. It is next to orange and opposite violet. It has a dominant wavelength of approximately 625–740 nanometres. Red is a primary color in the RGB color model and the CMYK color model, and is the complementary color of cyan.
Hope it helps!
