How do rainbows form? Science Short

How do rainbows form? 🌈

The rain stops, the Sun comes out, and someone shouts, “Rainbow!” But where did all those colours come from?

This week, Christie answers a question from Bella, aged eight, from Brisbane. Follow sunlight through a raindrop, find out why you and a friend see slightly different rainbows, and discover how a rainbow can be a full circle. Plus: the truth about that pot of gold at the end.
