Yellow Submarine

The Yellow Submarine in Liverpool is a large model representation of the submarine featured in the animated film Yellow Submarine, and in the song of that name on the Beatles album, Revolver. It was built by a group of about 80 apprentices from Cammell Laird's shipyard, for exhibition at the International Garden Festival in Liverpool in 1984. The Submarine was in a garden themed around the Beatles, one of 60 such themed gardens, and was highly popular.

Yellow is a color

Yellow is the color evoked by light that stimulates both the L and M (long- and medium-wavelength) cone cells of the retina about equally, but does not significantly stimulate the S (short-wavelength) cone cells; that is, light with lots of red and green but not much blue. Light with a wavelength of 560–580 nm is a yellow, as is light with a suitable mixture of somewhat longer and shorter wavelengths.
