The sun is not yellow.

 A scientific session,

A brief and labeled lesson.

Particles are hammering,
Molecules are clattering,

Sunlight is redirected, and it's known as "atmospheric scattering".

Scattering by air molecules,
Scattering by water droplets,
Scattering by dust;

The sun remains powerful and its light is robust.

A subject to correct,
A child's knowledge to protect,
This is the outcome of a simple visual effect.

The cause of a blue-colored sky,
The touchdown of science to solidify.

The reddish hues are found at sunrise and sunset, what gorgeous colors; they're even painted on a drum set.

Sunlight appears different in fog and mist.
Abracadabra! The sun is a magical gist. How could such a natural illusion exist?

Scattering can affect the way images are captured from space.

To infinity and beyond, the sun will always be the winner of this race.

Blue is scattered away;
Yellow and red reach our eyes with their fiery display.

The essence becomes bright;
The answer is now at flight.

Truth be told, the sun's true color is actually white.

Jiggly Jell-O,
Melted marshmallow,

A scientific bellow,
Now you know the sun is neither orange nor yellow.
