Science world 🌍 on Instagram: "Why do engineers choose yellow for fog lights? 🌧️ It comes down to the physics of light scattering. Standard white headlights contain shorter blue wavelengths, which hit water droplets in the fog and scatter right back at the driver—creating that dangerous "wall of white" glare (Rayleigh scattering). Yellow light has a longer wavelength, which penetrates the moisture in the air with significantly less scattering. This engineering choice improves contrast and allo

ANYTHING EXPLAINED on Instagram: "The Sun isn’t yellow — space reveals its true color. On Earth, our atmosphere scatters blue light, making the Sun appear yellow or orange. In space, without atmospheric filtering, the Sun shines pure white, showing its real color exactly as it is. Earth’s atmosphere changes how light looks Blue light scattering alters Sun’s appearance In space, no filtering happens The Sun is actually white in color 👉 Follow @explain_everything.io for space facts that change ho
