A. Two people never see the same rainbow. Each person sees a different one. It happens because the raindrops are constantly moving so the rainbow is always changing too. Each time you see a rainbow it is unique and it will never be the same! In addition, everyone sees colours differently according to the light and how their eyes interpret it.

B. A rainbow is an optical phenomenon that is seen in the atmosphere. It appears in the sky when the sun’s light is reflected by the raindrops. A rainbow always appears during or immediately after showers when the sun is shining and the air contains raindrops. As a result, a spectrum of colours is seen in the sky. It takes the shape of a multicoloured  arc.

C. Many cultures see the rainbow as a road, a connection between earth and

heaven (the place where God lives). Legends say that it goes below the earth at

the horizon and then comes back up again. In this way it makes a permanent

link between what is above and below, between life and death. In some myths

the rainbow is compared to a staircase connecting earth to heaven.

D. We all believe that the rainbow is arch-shaped. The funny thing is that it's

actually a circle. The reason we don’t see the other half of the rainbow is

because we cannot see below the horizon. However, the higher we are above

the ground, the more of the rainbow’s circle we can see. That is why, from an

airplane in flight, a rainbow will appear as a complete circle with the shadow of the airplane in the centre.

E. In many cultures there is a belief that seeing a rainbow is good. Legends say that if you dig at the end of a rainbow, you'll find a pot of gold. Rainbows are also seen after a storm, showing that the weather is getting better, and there is hope after the storm. This is why they are associated with rescue and good fortune.  If people happen to get married on such a day, it is said that they will enjoy a very happy life together.
