Colors: What is Color, Really? | Radiolab Podcast

From the Radiolab podcast: How does something so intangible as color pack such a visceral punch? In this episode, in the name of science and poetry, Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich tear the rainbow to pieces. To what extent is color a physical thing in the physical world, and to what extent is it created in our minds? We start with Sir Isaac Newton, who was so eager to solve this very mystery, he stuck a knife in his eye to pinpoint the answer. Then, we meet a sea creature — the mantis shrimp — that sees a rainbow way beyond anything humans can experience, and we track down a real-life tetrachromat, who we're pretty sure can see thousands (maybe even millions) more colors than the rest of us. And we end with an age-old question, that, it turns out, never even occurred to most humans until very recently: why is the sky blue? 🎧 Subscribe to Radiolab wherever you listen to podcasts: https://bit.ly/3p3BO2q 🔎 Subscribe to Radiolab on YouTube: https://bit.ly/3I9KI53 🌱 Check out Radiolab's Starter Kit Playlist: https://bit.ly/3sX8f4P 👍 Like this video ✏️ and leave us a comment!
