* Rayleigh Scattering: This type of scattering occurs when sunlight interacts with particles much smaller than the wavelength of light (like molecules in the atmosphere). Blue light has a shorter wavelength than red light, so it gets scattered more strongly by these particles.
* Blue Light Scattering: As sunlight enters the atmosphere, blue light is scattered in all directions by the air molecules. This scattered blue light is what we see as the blue sky.
