Is the sky blue from the ocean?

[switch226]

Alright guys I was at work today thinking about this. Is the sky blue because the water is blue... or is the water blue because the sky is blue?:wtf:

[ghosty]

neither... take astronomy

[switch226]

nein that is one thing i will not do

[ghosty]

why not dude? i didnt think i'd like it either but i took it my freshman year of college and it's pretty interesting. you'll learn a lot about the way the universe works and such. who wouldnt wanna know that?

LOL ARE YOU BEING SERIOUS!

DOES THE POPE SHIT IN THE WOODS!?

The sky is blue and makes the ocean blue. Because really, have you ever poured a glass of blue water?

lol blue water...

...like mouth wash? with salt?

the sky is blue from light refraction, reflection and absorption in the water vapor in the atmosphere. blue light happens to be the wavelength of light most commonly reflected and least absorbed.

yeah sophomore year of college coming up... I'll be sure to steer clear from that class. Kinesiology is my major

[Mountaindewzilla]

for more, go on wikipedia and look up rayleigh scattering.
i think that is what it is called anyway :D

Hell yea man! I took an astronomy/weather class my senior year of high school and I'm taking another Astronomy class this upcoming sophomore year of college. Space and how it works fascinates me.

a science teacher said, "all colors, (including blue for example), appears blue, only because blue light is the only wavelength of color that the (appearance of blue), doesn't reflect into our eyes"

therefore, oceans and skies that appear blue, are therefore not reflecting any blue wavelengths of light into or eyes

therefore, what appears to be blue is definitely not blue

[switch226]

rainbows you are so smart :thumbsup:

[LuckyG]

You all think this is a dumb question to ask, but I've heard it before. I led my co-worker on for a bit before destroying her with science. That's the way I roll.

But seriously, if the sky was blue because it reflected the ocean, wouldn't it also be green from the grass and rock-coloured from the rocks? Think about it. But not too hard. :D

"blue" is nothing, but a specific wavelength of light

quote your references Crunkjuice

[WestC0ast4lyfe]

I never thought i would say this to anyone but, I think you smoke entirely too much reefer.

[marijuana_dreamz]

[hempnation]

your dumb bitch, get the fuck out:rastasmoke:

[Nightcrewman]

Blue sky ? blue ocean ? what the fuck are those ? round here in the west of Scotland the sky is always grey and cloudy and the ocean is a shitty mucky sort of color due to the fact its full of shit and muck, oh and some nasty radioactive particles from the nuclear power station.
Blue sky and ocean---I wish :)

Lmfao! Brilliant reply from a Brit there.

Our ocean used to be brown and murky, but the local council took action to clean it up. Dare I say it, they've done a good job! The ocean is now blue and looks quite clear on the shore. It still manages to look dirty from time to time though, mostly when it's rough out at sea, or the weathers really bad.


your dumb bitch, get the fuck out:rastasmoke:

With an attitude like that I think it's best you get the fuck out.
