Why does sun appear white?

Our Sun is white, and it would look white if you looked at it from space. The atmosphere scatters sunlight, especially light of shorter wavelength, i.e. blue light. So the Sun appears slightly orange-ish as a result.

Sun is directly overhead and sunlight travels a relatively shorter distance in the atmosphere of earth. This causes only a little of all the colours to be scattered, even blue colour. So the sun appears white at noon.
