Measurement & Detection
Scientists can use special cameras called imaging spectrometers to measure the exact colors in a rainbow by looking at how sunlight spreads out in the sky!
Formation & Science

Scientists use special tools like radiometers or imaging spectrometers to measure how bright a rainbow is and how its light spreads across the sky!
