Green flash

and why we react to a ball of light dipping below the horizon like it's something rare, when really, it happens every day.

Later in the episode, I'll bring in an atmospheric expert to break down the real science, why the sky turns those specific colors, and what actually is going on with the green flash, that fast, easy-to-miss flicker that some people chase for years without catching.

Here's my chat with Cameron Hewitt.

All right, Cameron Hewitt, this is exciting.

I was on a beach in Menemsha in Martha's Vineyard and I think that played a role in the clap.

I think you're right.

And then the other, the other thing, um, I'm sure you've heard of the green flash, you know, this is this phenomenon.

Yeah.
