The Rayleigh sky model is a theoretical representation used to describe the scattering of light in the Earth's atmosphere. It is particularly focused on how sunlight is scattered by air molecules, leading to the characteristic blue color of the daytime sky. ### Key Concepts of the Rayleigh Sky Model: 1. **Rayleigh Scattering**: This is the phenomenon where light or other electromagnetic radiation is scattered by particles much smaller than the wavelength of the light, such as air molecules.
