One-Minute Physics: Why there is no pink light

Sandrine Ceurstemont, editor, New Scientist TV You've probably seen light that looks pink, but where does this colour come from? Different wavelengths of visible light correspond to colours of the rainbow - and pink isn't one of them. In our latest One-Minute Physics video, animator Henry Reich takes us through the mysterious make-up of pink light.
