The sky becomes redish/purple in the evening because of the angle in which the sun light waves penetrate the atmosphere. During the day when the sun is hiting the earth in a perpendicular way, the blue waves from the spectrum penetrate the atmosphere with more frequency than any other waves, and that's why the sky is blue in those hours. During Dawn or Dusk, when the sun is in a different angle to the earth, the Red / purple waves from the spectrum are absorved more than any others.
During sunset, the sun is low on the horizon, causing its light to pass through more of the Earth's atmosphere. This scattering of light by the atmosphere causes shorter wavelength colors like blue and green to scatter out, leaving longer wavelength colors like red and orange to dominate the sky's appearance. This phenomenon is known as Rayleigh scattering.
The sky is redder when the sun is closer to the horizon; this is because at an angle the atmosphere tends to deflect blue light and allow red light to pass through. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and therefore has more chances to hit atmospheric particles (such as gas molecules, water droplets, and particulates). The entire sky functions rather like an array of countless prisms; the angle of light affects the amount of atmosphere through which the light passes and thus the probability of certain colors being deflected or transmitted. This phenomenon is similar to the effect of mist to produce a rainbow, except on a larger scale; it also explains why the sky is blue most of the day. However, if your sky is getting red in the afternoon rather than the early morning or late evening, either we are using different conventions to recognize general concepts of time, or you live in an area that experiences unusual meteorological conditions to your west, which could affect the explanation; one suggestion that comes to mind is volcanic activity.
Another viewpoint: It is because the sunlight has to pass through more of the atmosphere.
However, the scientific phenomenon involved is called "scattering". Red light is
scattered less than blue light.
Red sky in morn, sailors take warn. Red sky at night, sailors delight. This means that because the earth rotates towards the east, In the morning, if you see red, it means you are heading into a weather system due to the increased moisture in the atmosphere. (sailors take warn.) If you see this same red in the afternoon, the moisture is to the west of you and not a direct threat. (sailors delight). The origin of the saying is unknown, although a form of it appears in The Bible (Matthew 16:2-3). It has some basis in science and is a fairly good predictor of-though no guarantee-of weather at the mid latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere, where storm systems generally follow the jet stream from west to east. A red sky in the morning indicates a sun rising in clear eastern skies casting its rays on storm clouds approaching from the west. At night the clear sight of the red setting sun would tell a sailor that no storms are to the west. See the related link for more information.
The air is dry when there is a red sky in the afternoon or evening. "Red sky at night sailor's delight. Red sky in the morning sailors' warning."
The sun hits the clouds at an angle so it makes the sky look red
The sky appears red and orange during sunrise and sunset due to a phenomenon called Rayleigh scattering, where shorter wavelengths (such as blue and green) are scattered, leaving longer wavelengths (like red and orange) to dominate the sky's color. This scattering effect is more pronounced when the sun is lower in the sky, giving rise to the vibrant hues we see during these times of the day.
Blood is scarlet red in color when it is loaded with oxygen. Oxygenated blood appears bright red, while deoxygenated blood appears darker.
due to scattering of light .........
Blue light is scattered in the Earth's atmosphere due to its shorter wavelength, which is why the sky appears blue during the day. However, during sunset, the sun is lower in the sky which causes the light to pass through a thicker portion of the atmosphere. This scattering effect is more pronounced, causing the blue light to be scattered away and leaving behind the longer wavelength colors like red, orange, and pink that are visible during sunset.

The earth's atmosphere refracts the light of the sun like a prism, It also appears to get bigger for the same reason.
During sunset, the sun appears red because the Earth's atmosphere scatters shorter-wavelength light (like blue and green) from the sunlight, leaving the longer-wavelength red, orange, and yellow light to reach our eyes. This is why the sun looks red when it is low on the horizon.
Red Sails in the Sunset - song - was created in 1935.
the us is now eating puppy chow and having an awesome song.

A red sunset can indicate that there is more dust, pollution, or moisture in the air, causing the sunlight to scatter and create a red hue. The scattering of light also tends to happen more at sunset and sunrise when the sun is lower on the horizon. Overall, a red sunset is a common and natural occurrence.
Red.
Press the power button and immediately unplug the power. Just before the red light appears. Voila, your receiver's password is reset.
The sun appears red at sunrise and sunset due to its light passing through more of the Earth's atmosphere, causing shorter blue and green wavelengths to scatter, while the longer red wavelengths remain visible. This phenomenon is known as atmospheric scattering.
The color of the sunrise and sunset appears orange and red because of the scattering of sunlight by particles and gases in the Earth's atmosphere. When the sun is near the horizon, light has to pass through a larger portion of the atmosphere, causing shorter wavelengths (blues and greens) to be scattered out, leaving primarily longer wavelengths (oranges and reds) to be visible.

It appears red because of how hot it is and how close it is to the sun.
