More About Frozen in Time: An Epic Story of Survival and a Modern Quest for Lost Heroes of World War II

Snow contains oxygen, which scatters light across the visible spectrum, making it appear white. Compacting squeezes out the oxygen, and the compacted ice crystals that remain absorb long light waves and reflect short waves. The shortest light waves are violet and blue.
