On Twitter, famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson took a moment to teach us the scientific principles behind rainbows --explaining how reflected light creates them and, of course, citing his favorite scientist, Isaac Newton.
At the end of his Twitter lesson, Tyson sent a sweet message of support to the Orlando victims.
