If you were to share that experience with someone else and say, I saw this incredible double rainbow, then you're basically telling your brain to experience it again.

And you've just perfectly encapsulated how wonder shared is wonder multiplied.

And so I think that's a perfect example of one of the reasons why we love to have these wonder experiences together, why people go to church as a group, why people like to enjoy music and gigs as a group, because that sense of wonder, that sense of awe, that sense of exploration and discovery can be shared.
