Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains the REAL Color of the Sun
Neil deGrasse Tyson Explains the REAL Color of the Sun Kwadwo Danmeara Tòkunbọ̀ Datɛ 138 Views • 5 years ago

Is the sun yellow? Like in those pictures you drew as a kid? The answer is no. On this StarTalk explainer, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comic co-host Chuck Nice investigate the true color of the Sun.

Neil explains why the Sun’s true color is white. You’ll learn how the atmosphere takes the Sun’s white light and turns it into something else. You’ll also learn why the blue sky is stolen sunlight.

Lastly, Neil gives us a photography lesson and tells us how photographers deal with different light. We investigate indoor vs. outdoor light. All that, plus, Neil explains why snow being white is evidence of the Sun’s white light.

Forest of the Lynx premieres Wednesday, April 26, 8-9 pm ET on PBS. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature..../forest-of-the-lynx-


The giant ichneumon wasp, megarhyssa rixator, has an unusual method for laying eggs. Using her overly-long ovipositor to drill deep into a tree trunk, she deposits a single egg on to the surface of an immobilized wood wasp larva. Her egg turns into a larva, that will eat the paralyzed host...bit by bit.
