Can you stand at the end of a rainbow?

Best Answers

It can only be perceived from a distance. If you stand with the back of your head directly to the sun, the rainbow is whatever part of a circle of radius 40-42 degrees centered dead ahead where there's rain illuminated by the sun. read more

If you walk towards the point on the ground where the rainbow currently seems to end (and the sun doesn't set, and the rain doesn't stop, and the clouds don't move) the rainbow will still be the same angular size, so it will appear to shrink relative to the landscape. read more
