Incorrect - you cannot produce a rainbow indoors with a strong lamp and a shower head - you need a mirror too.


You do not need a mirror.

And if the Rainbow is cause by the refraction of sunlight in a raindrop - there should be millions of tiny rainbows in the sky, but we see one solid 2 d rainbow.


Partially correct. Each rain drop creates its own (very weak) rainbow at a specific angle from the sunlight. We only see the rainbows formed by those raindrops that are aligned at the correct angle between our eyes and the sun, and those thousands of weak rainbows overlap nicely to create a clearly visible rainbow.

And while light may refract though a raindrop, water droplets do not reflect light - I dont think you understand the difference.


Partially correct, but you're just arguing semantics here.

So while it is a "theory" id categorize it as bs "excuse theory".


Or you could try to verify whether I am correct or not instead of just challenging it with your own superficial assumptions.

Undeniable proof - pretty much - but I'm sure you find a decent excuse or find another word you dont actually understand


In other words, I'll pull my sultan card?

waiting for you to make a rainbow indoors with a shower and a lamp, while be waiting for years while you keep trying to do that, ok?

Also its more than semantics , its about understanding the fine detail of words, what they mean and how to use them.

Also, how can anyone take your points seriously, you dont even know the difference between outside and inside or how perspective, optics or reality works.

You've never had a garden hose produce one in the summer, must've reflected off the dome


you used a garden hose - so you're saying you were outside?

inside - outside should be a topic on Sesame St i guess. :rofl:

Ok, let's pretend you're correct about the inside vs outside thing.

Can you please prove to me that the dome around the Earth has something to do with rainbows?

Semantics semantics semantics semantics


se·man·tics
səˈman(t)iks/
noun
the branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning. There are a number of branches and subbranches of semantics, including formal semantics, which studies the logical aspects of meaning, such as sense, reference, implication, and logical form, lexical semantics, which studies word meanings and word relations, and conceptual semantics, which studies the cognitive structure of meaning.


I know you can't read that but I pasted it in the hope that one day you might be able to.


Once you pass the first grade it only gets harder though

Its not pretend, its a huge difference

Once you realize the idea that raindrops can reflect light is ridiculous, wtf is reflecting the light OUTSIDE?

Your options to consider are rather limited, wouldn't you say?

indoor - outdoor - same thing - merely semantics - got it

Thanks for the info Troll

Raindrops fracturing light is enough in order to create the rainbows we observe -- even without a dome being present. Earlier I said reflecting, and even though raindrops do have a reflective quality, you corrected me by saying they fracture the light. And you were right.

So now I would like you to prove to me that there is a dome which causes the rainbow effect.
