   [rainbow] what's beyond the edges?

   Good morning.   
      
   This is not about apples, although I mention “The Spectrum”. Again.   
      
   Can there be a simple explanation for the difference in size of the   
   “unused space” above and below a rainbow?   
      
   I venture that the “lower” edge is the violet and the upper edge the   
   red line. If I remember rain and rainbows correctly (it has been a   
   while), there is much less space after violet but much more before   
   red.   
      
   Or maybe I am just nuts.
