Answer : Because the sun is low on the horizon, sunlight passes through more air at sunset and sunrise than during the day, when the sun is higher in the sky. More atmosphere means more molecules to scatter the violet and blue light away from your eyes.This is why sunsets are often yellow, orange, and red

Answer:
Within the visible range of light, red light waves are scattered the least by atmospheric gas molecules. ... The result is that the sunlight takes on an orange or red cast, which we can see reflected from clouds or other objects as a colorful sunset (or sunrise).
