why does sun appear reddish early in the morning ?will the phenomenon be observed by an astronaut on the moon?

Answer 1

heya frnd 

>> sun is located near horizon in early morning or during sunrise 

>>hence light travels long distance through earths atmosphere 

>>the particles suspended in atmosphere have same wavelength as wavelength of blue 

>>so when sunlight falls on it , blue light get scattered out from atmosphere 

>>thus the light that reaches earth is red 

>>so sun and its surroundings appear reddish 

>>the same cant be observed on moon as  moon dont have atmosphere
