Over the Rainbow: LeVar Burton Explains How DOUBLE Rainbows Form

The video explores the formation of rainbows, focusing on double rainbows. LeVar Burton explains that rainbows are formed through light reflection and refraction in water droplets. Double rainbows occur when light reflects twice inside droplets, creating a secondary, inverted rainbow. The video also covers Alexander's band, tertiary and quaternary rainbows, and supernumerary and twinned rainbows. The phenomenon is a simple interaction of light, water, and the observer's position.
