I have talked about this topic before. Some people wonder why the sky is blue. What is the real scientific reason for why the sky is blue. As you may know, the sky is reflecting the color blue into our eyes because it absorbs all the other colors except blue. The sky is blue because it reflects off the ocean and we look at the color blue in our eyes. As you know, the ocean is blue because it contains oxygen in it. At one point in history, the ocean was actually green.

There is also tiny droplets of water in the air. Light hits those tiny droplets of water and reflects into our eyes. Way back in history, the ocean was actually green. There was a lot of iron in the ocean which made the ocean green. When cyanobacteria started releasing oxygen in to the atmosphere, it cause a reaction and made the ocean turn blue like today's ocean. Just think about it. At one point, the sky could of been green because the light reflects into the sky. I kind of wish we did have a green sky.
