Rainbows are actually the suns rays separated into different colors by water droplets in the air acting as prisms.
FUN-FACT: Clouds are white because tiny water droplets in clouds reflect the sun like a mirror reflects light. Thick clouds look dark gray underneath because little sunlight can pass through them.
