The rainbow is a prism that occurs when light travels through water or something that can bend the light to creat the colors that we call the rainbow.

...I believe it started in England....not sure. It DOES not mean that a person is gay.It is proper etiquette...it looks better than if you held a tea cup like a baseball....

The individual colors don't have any significance on their own. It's the rainbow that makes the flag.\n\nThe rainbow flag was used in the 60s and 70s as a counter-culture hippy banner, a sort of bringing it all together gesture.\n\nAfter the assasination of San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk, the flag began being used A LOT in San Francisco, and that's when it really became the official queer banner.

Theres -3- different meanings. \nThe first is a political party in Greece. \n\nThe second is a group sex event, widely associated with oral activities. \n\nThird. It is the title of a book about kids and group sex.\n\nAlternatively alot of people may be inclided to think this as a gay...event. While the rainbow has widely been a 'gay identifier' this is not the case. The name was generated from girls that would wear different colors of lipstick...hence the name rainbow.

It is a second rainbow caused by the way light reflects inside of raindrops.  They will appear between 50 and 53 degrees above the horizon and the colors are inverted.  There is also a band of darker sky between the two, this is called an Alexander's band.

no. rainbows are actually circular, and therefore have no end or beginning. they seem to end at the horizon, but actually continue on the other side. i know it sounds weird, but if you see them from above, in an airplane, you can see the whole circle.

well...the rainbow was first meant to be the promise/bond God made with mankind to never attempt to destroy mankind again with any type of flooding...i dont see how a symbol of God's promise to man became a symbol for homosexuals...kinda disrespecful and rude when you think about it

You know how you see a rainbow when its really humid, or when it rains and there is sun? Thats what you saw, you saw a rainbow, but not a half rainbow, but rather a whole rainbow around the sun. A ring rainbow, this is due because of the high humidity that is in the air, its the same as a rainbow, just around the sun.

Double rainbows are a rarity.\n\n\n\n\n \nThe Double Rainbow\n\n \n\n\nEvery once in a while, if you get lucky, you may see a second rainbow on the outside of the first, brighter rainbow. This is the "secondary rainbow" which occurs when raindrops high in the atmosphere refract and reflect light back to the viewer. \n\nThese raindrops are higher than those which cause the "primary rainbow" and are special because they internally reflect the incoming sunlight twice rather than just once. \n\n\n\nNotice that the sunlight hits the bottom of the raindrop to make the secondary rainbow. There is still sunlight hitting the other parts of the raindrop, however, some of the light is simply transmitted through the raindrop without reflecting, and some light is reflected and refracted, but not into our eyes: that light is for someone else's rainbow. \n\nNotice also in the image at the top of the page that the sequence of colors in the secondary rainbow is switched compared to the primary bow. Why is this? \n\n\n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
