When we see the Sun at sunrise or sunset, when it is low in the sky, it may appear yellow, orange, or red. But that is only because its short-wavelength colors (green, blue, violet) are scattered out by the Earth's atmosphere, much like small waves are dispersed by big rocks along the shore.

Arceus11: Other than this, the significant thing is that the color of the sun itself is yellow orange

Arceus11: This is because color of a star is determined by its surface temperature

Anonymous: Thanks^-^

Arceus11: Temperature of surface of sun is about 5,500°C which is between extremes

Anonymous: thanks arcues u too for your effort:)

Arceus11: so as the hottest stars are blue and coolest stars are white, sun is between them and has yellow color

Arceus11: Thanks.. it is just what I happened to be knowing
