If 95% of the atmosphere was SO2, how would the sky look?

Taking into account the Rayleigh scattering phenomenon, assuming that the atmosphere is 1 bar, how would the light from the G2V-type star interact with this kind of environment? Could the colour of the sky even alter despite the fact that there is a significant amount of sulfur dioxide in the atmosphere? And if so, how would this effect the appearance of auroras and cloud formation?

Hi Sam, and welcome.

The New Member forum is really for saying hi and introducing yourself, not for science questions.

Start a new thread in an appropriate science forum (or perhaps science fiction forum, if you're world-building) to get the answers you seek.

Hello everyone, I was advised to join this community while seeking guidance on how to navigate the academic world as an independent researcher. My name is Omar, and I'm based in Groningen The Netherlands. My formal physics education ended after high school, but I have dedicated the last several years to developing a theoretical framework from first principles. My work focuses on a topological field theory (which I call Swirl-String Theory) that models particles as knotted vortex...
