Answer 2

The color of the sky is a result of diffuse sky radiation and the fact that air is actually a very transparent blue color. On a sunny day the Earth sky usually looks as a blue gradient — dark in the zenith, light near the horizon (due to Rayleigh scattering). It turns orange and red during sunrise and sunset, and becomes black at night.
