by originated do you mean invented?
It's a natural phenomenon created in the atmosphere by the reflection of the sun shining through water droplets. - Quite rare as the circumstance of weather must be just right.
The bible tells us that the first rainbow appeared as a sign to Noah that He (God) would never destroy the earth again.

since light(white light) is an aggregate of different lights ,each with different wavelengths and colour ,thus these different lights can also be seperated.This seperation happens because the white light passes thru a thicker medium ,so the different wavelengths which form the white ligth seperate in this medium .This happenes when it passes thru a prism or a drop of water .That is why u see a rainbow (which is the seperation of these lights to form a spectrum)either after it rains or during it rains in the presence of sunlight.

In the big bang, it was determined that the hydrogen and oxygen bond is at a certain angle, when extended in a macromolecular direction splits the visible wavelengths of light into its component wavelengths (colors) and takes on a bow shape, exactly painting the angle of the hydrogen-oxygen bond in the shape of a bow. IF the sun is low on the horizon.

After the flood. God made a covenant with Noah, and promised that when you see a rainbow that He would never flood the whole earth again.

Its the colours of the spectrum caused by the refraction and reflection of the sun's rays through rain.

Try looking in the Science category--unless this belongs in Gay Interest, in which case, I don't really know.

God created it as a sign to future generations that he would never flood the earth again to the extent of the one in the OT.
