Why is the sky blue?
Answer:
idk because it is what it is
Because the sky likes to take a leaf of sea's book!
LOOOL
beacaus the particles in the air absorb certain parts of light in the spectrum and the ones that it does not absorb is reflected. that is its reflets all the other colours of the spectrum except blue which it reflects
The first thing to recognize is that the sun is an extremely bright source of light -- much brighter than the moon. The second thing to recognize is that the atoms of nitrogen and oxygen in the atmosphere have an effect on the sunlight that passes through them.
There is a physical phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering that causes light to scatter when it passes through particles that have a diameter one-tenth that of the wavelength (color) of the light. Sunlight is made up of all different colors of light, but because of the elements in the atmosphere the color blue is scattered much more efficiently than the other colors.
So when you look at the sky on a clear day, you can see the sun as a bright disk. The blueness you see everywhere else is all of the atoms in the atmosphere scattering blue light toward you. (Because red light, yellow light, green light and the other colors aren't scattered nearly as well, you see the sky as blue.)
Hope that helps
because it reflects off the ocean.
I thought it was green ;)
Don't let anyone tell you it's because of the ocean... water is clear- it only looks blue because it is reflecting the colour of the sky. The sky's colour has to do with light refracting from the atmosphere. Check out this site: http://www.sciencemadesimple.com/sky_blu...

Because GOD LOVES THE INFANTRY
because a long time ago the ocean was mad at the sky and said some really hurtful things and then the sky was sad so he turned blue
Opal Fruit is half right. Rayleigh scattering does cause the shorter wavelength light such as blue and violet to scatter more. But the wavelength that is scattered the most is violet, not blue.
The reason the sky looks blue to humans is that our eyes are better at seeing blue than violet. To an animal such a a bee, that is better at seeing violet and can even see ultraviolet wavelengths, the sky would appear to be violet.
Because the God painted it blue......
Go read a book and find out.
