The rainbow has a place in legend due to its beauty and the difficulty in explaining the phenomenon before the work of Descartes in the 17th century (although, as mentioned above, Theodoric of Freiburg had given a satisfactory explanation in the 13th century.)
In Greek mythology, the rainbow considered to be a path made by a messenger (Iris) between Earth and Heaven. In Chinese mythology, the rainbow was a slit in the sky sealed by Goddess Nüwa using stones of five different colours. In Hindu mythology, the rainbow is called Indradhanush, meaning the bow of Indra, the God of lightning and thunder. In Norse Mythology, a rainbow called the Bifröst Bridge connects the realms of Ásgard and Midgard, homes of the gods and humans, respectively. The Irish leprechaun's secret hiding place for his crock of gold is usually said to be at the end of the rainbow (which, of course, one can never reach). In the Hebrew Bible, the rainbow is a symbol of the covenant between God and man, and God's promise to Noah that He would never again flood the entire Earth. |

I like zen's answer almost as much as I like zen. But I fear I must contradict her. Rain is not always required; but water droplets are. Waterfall rainbows, such as those which appear regularly in the mists over Niagara Falls, are some of the most beautiful rainbows you'll ever see. Nice! :) |

It must be raining (water in the air).
You must have your back to the Sun (the rainbow will be in the sky opposite the Sun).
The Sun must be low in the sky, as the rainbow is opposite the Sun, if the Sun is too high in the sky that you are able to view, the rainbow will be below the horizon for you. Best chance to see a rainbow, early morning, or just before dusk.
The Sun has to "peek" through the clouds, or be "below" them, while it is raining, or no rainbow.

They are circular if you are in a plane.
There are two rainbows and the second is reversed colors when they are really intense. |

rainbows are made up of white light, and contain the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. The way you can remember the colors is by using this name; ROY G BIV
each letter stands for the first letter of each color. |

Aside from the colorful thing you see after the rain poured, it also means a goal, hope, or ideal that is unlikely to be achieved or realized. |

the colours are created from the breaking up of light in rain drops.
