Answer 1

A little side fact: Because we have an atmosphere, sunlight gets scattered with blue light scattering the most and giving the sky it’s iconic blue color. You have blue light coming from parts of the sky where the sun isn’t.

But that blue *comes out* of “other light.” That’s why sunsets and sunrises are distinctively *not blue* – your blue skies are someone else’s sunrises and sunsets.
