The properties and behaviour of light, and how it interacts with droplets of water, give rise to one of nature's most colourful meteorological events - the rainbow.

Rainbows are formed when sunlight is scattered from raindrops into the eyes of an observer.

Most raindrops are spherical rather than the often depicted 'teardrop' shape and it is this spherical shape that provides the conditions for a rainbow to be seen.

The position of the sun and the raindrops in relation to the observer need to be just right for a rainbow to form:
