Ive always wanted to know this.
Whats making it blue? Is there something in the air thats doing it? :confused:
Why wasn't your first thought to google it instead of posting a pointless thread on here?
 
Cos Chuck Norris roundhouse-kicked the other colours out of the sky!

YA RLY!

All your base.
 
I always thought it to be the refraction of light in the ionosphere... but I'm convinced we now have rainbow sheep lining the sky :p
 
Its the refraction of light as it hits the atmosphere. If our atmosphere was of a different density, we would have a different colour sky. For example, on Mars, the sunset is apparently blue due to Mars having a much thinner atmosphere.
