'Paradise gate' is fuzzy in Europe

The white rainbow appears in the mist on the mountain in Ukraine, making a Russian lecturer feel like a paradise gate.

Mikhail Baevsky, a professor of chemistry at a university in Russia, discovered a white rainbow when he and some people discovered the Chatyr-Dag mountain range in the Crimea peninsula in southern Ukraine. He quickly took the camera to take this amazing spectacle, Caters News reported.

"I often climb the Chatyr-Dag mountain range to find perfect images. When I see the white rainbow in the mist, I think it's just an illusion. I'm a scientist and I understand the cause. dew creates such a shape, but when you stand in the mountains with clouds below, the presence of a white rainbow makes you feel like you're looking at a portal to another world " , lecturer 61 age comment.

"Raw materials" to create rainbows include sunlight and rain drops. When the sun's rays meet water droplets in the air, they will be bent (refracted) or bounced back (reflected). In the process, light is scattered into seven primary colors. Most of the light escapes and focuses into an arc on the opposite side of the sun. It is a first-class rainbow. The colors of the rainbow arranged in turn: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, purple.

Like the 7-color rainbow, the white rainbow is also formed by the interaction of sunlight with small droplets in the air. However, water droplets are involved in the process of creating a much smaller white rainbow. Their diameter is less than 0.05mm, meaning they are too small to "bend" sunlight like rainwater. Instead, they can only diffuse light, so the rainbow is white. White rainbows often appear in Arctic waters and mountain ranges.
