Rainbows only seem to touch the ground. They are actually above the earth.
A rainbow is really a whole circle. We just can't see the other half because the earth gets in the way.
If you stood on a high mountain just before the sun went down, you might see the full circle of a rainbow.
Sunlight is made up of seven colors. But when light shines through water, we see all seven colors. That is a rainbow.
ROY G. BIV is not the name of a person. It is a way to remember the colors of a rainbow. They are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
The higher the sun is in the sky, the lower the rainbow will be.
