Why is the sky seen bluish?

Answer 1

complite your question with IN DAY LIGHT  

Answer 2

dear anzar, the sky looks blue, may be its the reflection of oceans, the water reflects the blue colour to the clouds, and from clouds it comes back to us.  

Answer 3

it is because of the scattering of blue light the most in the atmosphere.as the sun rays move through our atmosphere, the blue light is scattered more than other colours

Answer 4

The blue color of the sky is due to Rayleigh scattering. As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red, orange and yellow light is affected by the air.

However, much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules. The absorbed blue light is then radiated in different directions. It gets scattered all around the sky. Whichever direction you look, some of this scattered blue light reaches you. Since you see the blue light from everywhere overhead, the sky looks blue.

As you look closer to the horizon, the sky appears much paler in color. To reach you, the scattered blue light must pass through more air. Some of it gets scattered away again in other directions. Less blue light reaches your eyes. The color of the sky near the horizon appears paler or white.
