Why is the sky blue?

The question

Why is the sky blue? Explain it simply.

Efficient

The sky is blue because of the way sunlight interacts with our atmosphere.

Sunlight looks white, but it is actually made up of all the colors of the rainbow. When this light hits the gases and particles in Earth's atmosphere, it gets scattered in all directions.

Blue light travels in shorter, smaller waves, so it gets scattered more strongly than the other colors. When you look up, your eyes catch this scattered blue light coming from every part of the sky.
