How come when u look at the sky far away it looks white, while when you look up, its dark blue?

Answer 1

Sunlight is scattered as it passes through the atmosphere, blue more than red. This means that the blue light will appear to come from a wide part of the sky. Look to see if the sky is bluer near the Sun (don't stare at the Sun), at 90 degrees from the Sun, or beyond 90 degrees.

Answer 2

It depends upon the principle of how do we see. When you look at the sky far from you, angle between your eys, that point you are lookin at in the sky and the sun it not blocked by the earth.

When you look at the sky just above you than the angle between oyu, the point and the sun is blocked between the sky and sun, so you see it dark.

Answer 3

it is related to the amount of water in the air and the amount of air that you are looking through before you run out of atmosphere.

the distance between you on the ground and straight up is less than you looking to the horizon - more distance = more water vapor

on a very dry day - like in the desert of new mexico were the humidity may be as low as 5% - it is all blue bird
