What is at the end of a rainbow?


   
   Rainbow. We all know that it is band of seven colors created by the refraction, reflection and dispersion of light through water droplets.It is also a symbol of mercy as shown by God according to the Bible, after the great flood during Noah's time. It was put up in the sky to show a promise created by God that he won't flood the whole Earth again.Well then, what is at the end of a rainbow?

   Many people believe the Irish legends that at the end of a rainbow, there is a leprechaun waiting with a pot of gold. But in reality, there is no end to a rainbow. It is a optical illusion which seems to go further away when you try to get closer to it. Rainbows take many forms and not all colored bands of light are rainbows. People have different theories about rainbows and what's at the end of it. There are many options and all of them have to do with your imagination. So is there no end, or is a pot of gold waiting for the lucky person who comes by and finds it?
