How do rainbows occur?

1. Rainbows happens when sunlight and rain combine in a very specific way.

2.The beams of sunlight separate into the colours we see in the rainbow as they enter a raindrop.

3.Sunlight is actually made up of different colours that we don’t usually see.

4.When a beam of sunlight comes down to Earth,the light is white

5.But,if the light beam happens to hit raindrops on the way down at a certain angle,the different colours that make up the beam separate so that we can see them-in the form of a rainbow.

6.Light at different angles coming through many raindrops form the rainbow that we see,in stripe in red,orange,yellow,green,blue,
indigo and violet.
