Speaking of rainbows here at SMM we have a 4 story glass enclosed
stair way . the banisters have glass panels . the edges of these
panels project rainbows at different locations along the stairs.
totally unplanned and a fleeting example
Another discovered phenomena is in the outermost parking ramp
elevator is adjacent to a glass wall.
when the doors are closed a slit still exists between the edge of the
door and the elevator compartment.
A very clear image of out side is projected on the wall of the elevator.
I suppose these things just get a glance by most people, but It seems
that accidental things like this could be interpreted in a way to
lead others to observe their daily world more closely and see the
science connections.
