... glass (η = 1.474), and diamond (η = 2.417). Why the Sunset is Red and the Sky is Blue If there is a change in the photon's trajectory but no change in the photon's energy, this is called Rayleigh scattering. If you are looking at the source of light (like the sun) through a medium...

... been scattered away when looking at the sunlight passing through atmospheric Rayleigh scatterers. This also explains the appearance of the deep blue sky when looking away from the sun. You are seeing the Rayleigh scattered blue light and are not seeing the unscattered red wavelengths that pass...

... scattering of sunlight in the Earth's atmosphere that causes the sky to be blue is caused by coherent scattering of photons of visible light by air molecules—the blue wavelengths of light are scattered most strongly since these are the most energetic (i.e., have the shortest wavelength). Extending...

... of its small size, she could sweep through a great part of the night sky during one observing night.

... that of the Sun, ¹⁵ the sky's the limit. The force of gravity within the star causes it to collapse without end. Since its mass has not changed much, its density rises without stopping. The curvature of spacetime is so extreme that the light bends back on itself, rendering the object invisible...
