Colour Facts For March 2018

  1. There is a research that suggests that the type of television you watched when you were a child has a great effect on the colour of your dreams! While approximately 80 percent of all dreams are in colour, there are a small percentage of people, over 55 years of age who claim to only dream in black and white. Research from 1915 through to the 1950s suggest that a huge majority of dreams are in black and white but the tide turned in the sixties, and later results suggested that up to 80 per cent of dreams contain some colour. Isn't this fascinating?

  2. We know that you know that cheese is made from milk. And we all know that milk is white. So how in the world does the milk that comes from the cow end up in the dairy as orange cheddar cheese? Puzzled? Let us explain; Cheddar cheese is only orange because they dye it orange. Originally, the colour of cheese changed with season due to the diet of the cow. Farmers started dyeing it to eliminate seasonal colour fluctuations. This escalated to the present day orange colour. Interesting isn't it?

  3. Gold was first discovered as shiny, yellow nuggets. "Gold is where you find it," so the saying goes, and gold was first discovered in its natural state, in streams all around the world. No doubt it was the first metal known. But have you ever wondered where does gold get its shine from? It is all thanks to excited electrons! And Gold is yellow in colour owing to absorption of light when a d electron jumps to an s orbital.  It is owing to special relativity that gold has the yellow gleam.
