ABOUT THIS EPISODE
You are watching a striking sunset. The candy red, orange, pink and yellow, meting together. You just can't take your eyes off of it. No wonder it's one of the most universally beloved sights. It's immediately clear why it's so beautiful. But...you can't stop yourself from wondering: what kind of crazy physics make sunsets beautiful? And for that matter, why is the sky blue? Why is it not any other color?
Your inner alien wants to know! Perhaps one of the most common science questions ever asked, we needed to do an episode on this!
In this short-form episode, we will attempt to answer these two questions in an approachable way: Why is the sky blue and why are sunsets red?
We hope you have fun sharing this alien dinner conversation!
