HBY & Math #7: Portrayals of the Sun in Art 

The Sun has been depicted in art for thousands of years, from graphic illustrations to street art to ceramics. One of the most common beliefs is that the Sun is yellow. The reason the Sun looks yellow to us is that Earth's atmosphere extinguishes some of the light that passes from space to the ground but it doesn’t do this by the same amount at each wavelength from red (longer) to blue (shorter).

This webinar is presented by NASA HEAT and delivered by Dr. Sten Odenwald. Below you will find both the original PowerPoint slide deck assembled by Dr. Odenwald and a PDF version of those slides.
