Mae yna adrannau ar ddu a gwyn, fflworoleuedd, is-goch ac uwchfioled, ac esboniad o sut y mae rhai anifeiliaid yn gallu gweld yn y tywyllwch.

I am dedicated to improving the representation of girls and ethnic minorities in physics and I’m always trying to identify new ways to take astronomy and physics to underrepresented communities.” Oeddech chi’n gwybod bod gan hipopotamysau chwys coch, bod llygaid glas yn hollol glir heb unrhyw bigment o gwbl, a bod bananas goraeddfed yn pelydru lliw indigo o dan olau uwchfioled? After each colour is explored , the book cleverly goes 'beyond the rainbow' to look at the dark and those colours that the human eye cannot see. The science of how our brains and eyes work together to see different shades is so clearly and concisely explained. Vibrantly illustrated in full colour throughout, this non-fiction book is incredibly friendly and appealing. Readers of a variety of ages will find themselves dipping into it again and again.Hello Yellow - 80 Books to Help Children Nurture Good Mental Health and Support With Anxiety and Wellbeing - Author Guy Bass introduces SCRAP, about one robot who tried to protect the humans on his planet against an army of robots.

Dr Sheila Kanani begins by explaining what colour is, how we see it and how we see light. An experienced educator, her explanations are clear and inspiring, setting readers up for what is to come.The rainbow is in fact a full circle, but from the ground we can only an arch. A full circle can be seen from from an airplane! The Moon can make rainbows too. They are called Moonbows ! They are formed the same way as rainbows, only using the Moonlight, i.e. the light of the Sun reflected off the Moon.

Have you ever wondered why frogs are green? Or if the sun is really yellow? Or maybe why the sea is blue? Well, this colourful science compendium suitable for KS2 may hold the answers! Real attention has been paid to design and layout, which match and illuminate Dr Kanani’s eye-opening text. It’s an absorbing information book, accessible and stimulating.

Hopefully it will help us figure out whether the similar ingredients and conditions can be found on other planets and moons.

About This Edition ISBN:

Genre

Can you get rainbows in space? If you have seen the images coming from Tasmania of the Aurora Australis in the last week , then the answer would seem to be yes. So looks like seeing rainbows in the Solar System is possible, though unlikely. Some exoplanets probably have the right conditions for the rainbows to form. Future ground-based and space observatories will tell us more about the orbits, structures and compositions of these exotic worlds! How about Jupiter’s moon Europa ? We sure do remember the recent NASA reports about the discovery of the water plumes on the Jovian moon? Maybe the upcoming NASA Europa Clipper mission will return some beautiful photographs of Europa’s rainbows and halos! We cannot wait! And you'll even be taught by a real astronomer, Dr Sheila Kanani, exactly how to make a rainbow - in space
