What makes it

• When the sunlight enters a raindrop it is
  refracted, or bent, by and reflected from the
  drop in such a way that the light appears as a
  spectrum of colors. The colors can be seen,
  however, only when the angle of reflection
  between the sun, the drop of water, and the
  observer's line of vision is between 40 and 42.

  that the eye can detect. The range of sunlight
  colors, when combined, looks white to the eye.
  This property of sunlight was first demonstrated
  by Sir Isaac Newton in 1666.
• Light of different colors is refracted by
  different amounts when it passes from one medium
