@kevinmitnick Another cool effect is that the sky is often darker between the primary and secondary rainbows than on either side of them. — PolitiTweet.org

@kevinmitnick You get a second rainbow because not all the light exits the raindrop. Some stays inside for a second round of internal reflection before dispersing on exit. What emerges is a dimmer, larger, and reversed rainbow. — PolitiTweet.org

@Devilish21ca Most meteor streaks in the nighttime sky are caused by particles no larger than a pea. So if you re-enetered the atmosphere from orbital speeds, then as you vaporized, you’d be visible to anyone on Earrth with a sightline to you. — PolitiTweet.org
