- During sunrise, the light rays coming from the Sun have to travel a greater distance in the earth’s atmosphere before reaching our eyes.
- In this journey, the shorter wavelengths of lights are scattered out and only longer wavelengths are able to reach our eyes.
- Since blue colour has a shorter wavelength and red colour has a longer wavelength, the red colour is able to reach our eyes after the atmospheric scattering of light.
- Therefore, the Sun appears reddish early in the morning.

- This phenomenon cannot be seen by an astronaut on the moon because there is no atmosphere on moon to scatter the light.
