It is a long and wide spectrum of seven colours forming a semi -circle going from one end of the earth to the other.Scientists say that when sunlight passes through a rarer medium to a denser medium, all the seven colours present in the white light form a semi -circular rainbow.It is a popular belief that the appearance of a rainbow after the rain is an indication that from now onwards there will be no more rains.In hindi, it is called 'Indra Dhanush', who is supposed to be thegod of rain in hindu mythology.The rainbow not only appears to be miraculously beautiful but also wonderfully soothing to the eye.
