But more likely it was because red barns just look better against a green field.
I feel similarly. This discussion of dying stars and heavy metals is interesting, and it certainly could explain why barns are often painted red, but I tend to believe that color theory has more to do with the tradition of red barns than the physical state of the entire universe.
- edwardunknown 13y agoIf you want your barn to stand out against a green field you paint it red because that's the complimentary color of green. If the field were yellow you'd paint it blue. Pretty simple explanation when you think about it, no need for astrophysics.
