That's traditional knowledge, forever a pain in the ass.
And you are the weirdo for believing that that the Moon is not related to the Day/Night cycle, that the rainbow is a gradient, that butterflies are not X-shaped but rather a triangle.
- lesuorac 1y agoIt's weird that people dying is an effective way of moving knowledge forward. Intuitively, you'd think the longer people live the more they can learn and retain. Although, the rainbow is discrete colors as opposed to a continuous gradient [2]. Hence how you can get a monochrome rainbow [1] (it only splits the colors present).

- esafak 1y agoThe very link you cite says it is a continuous spectrum; the gamut of spectral colors: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_color https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_color A "monochrome" rainbow is still a continuous decomposition of low temperature (warm) sunlight. A truly monochromatic "rainbow" requires a spectral light source.
- blueflow 1y agoDo an image search for "rainbow drawing" and you will see what I'm talking about. People will draw a number of monochromatic segments with contour lines between them.

- bmacho 1y agoRainbow is a continuous gradient as opposed to discrete colors. The picture of the red rainbow is not a counterexample, it's just the light is red (a continuum of red) in the air during sunset/sunrise.
