I just read somewhere that the sky used to be a different colour before 1820 (?), I forget which colour it used to be. People were forced to never speak of it & everyone who say the old colour died off...
Actually after 1816, the year without a summer due to Krakatoa blowing up, there might be something to it?
Strictly speaking, the net average color of the sky changes every day based on minor changes to sunlight, algae bloom, solar wind refractions, haze, cloud cover, etc. No two days' skies are perfectly exactly alike.
The sun used to be yellow and as kids we'd dare each other to stare into it.
Now it's a hugely bright white star that takes up an entire quadrant of the sky with a glare that's impossible to look at or even in the same direction.
It must have been a while back, I didn't find it in my history :/
I found this from 1831 though but that's not it, iirc the woman died in the 1880's saying she was the last one who remembered it.
Sounds like she was misremembering a childhood thing. If the sun was blue for her first memories she may have built up an entire false memory in her head
The sun did not exist prior to 1842. I repeat, reality must bend to whatever idiotic thing I assert on the internet.
