There’s more to a rainbow than meets the eye. Discover the science behind its colours and how it could help us search for life beyond Earth.

Rainbows have inspired wonder for centuries, but how do they actually form? Infinite Rainbows follows scientists as they study the way light moves through water droplets and uncover the hidden patterns behind this familiar sight.

From experiments here on Earth to instruments studying distant worlds, this short documentary shows how understanding a rainbow could help scientists identify planets that might support life.
