A moonbow is a rare and stunning natural phenomenon that occurs when moonlight is refracted and reflected off water droplets in the air, creating a colorful arc of light in the night sky. Similar to a rainbow, moonbows are formed when light is dispersed into its various colors, but they are much rarer and more elusive, as they require specific conditions to occur. Moonbows are typically seen in areas with high humidity and clear skies, and are most commonly observed during the full moon. They can appear in a range of colors, from pale white to vibrant shades of red, blue, and purple. Moonbows are a breathtaking example of the beauty and wonder of the natural world, and are a reminder of the incredible diversity and complexity of our planet.
I’ve actually seen one of these things. I was on night shift up at one of the mines in the middle of winter. Perfectly clear night. Super cold. The one I saw was pale but it was entirely massive and formed a halo around the moon
You are so lucky. I hope I also see one of these things.
