Image title
Halo around the Moon - Lunar Halo - Halo around the Moon observes a few hours before the full Moon on January 10, 2009. The paper pencil-shaped ice crystals present in the cirrus form the lunar light (in fact, the solar light reflected by the lunar surface) as small prisms and can give birth to this large coloured circle (red inside and blue outside). Lunar halos are caused by moonlight being refracted by cirro - stratus clouds. These thin clouds are located very high in the atmosphere, and are composed of ice crystals. They bend light at a 22 degree angle, which creates a halo that is 44 degrees in diameter. January 10 2009
