[quote:Anonymous Coward 22802408:MV8xOTcyMTMzXzMzMTA5MTY3XzRFNkNFREM3] it looked just like this. http://home.hiwaay.net/~krcool/Astro/moon/moonring/PA192767m.jpg I tried to get a photo with my cell and camera didn't come out good one was all bright and the other came out red... some links A typical corona is only couple degrees in diameter and closely fringes the moon. Although not as intense as a solar rainbow, coronas may appear in several colors. On rare occasions lunar halos and lunar coronas can appear together http://home.hiwaay.net/~krcool/Astro/moon/moonring/ Some interesting facts about halos: Halos always occur exactly 22 degrees away from the sun or moon. Occasionally, intense halos can be double halos, just as intense rainbows can be doubled. Intense halos can also produce "moondogs" or "sundogs," very bright regions on the halo evenly spaced at 90 degree intervals around the halo. http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/question.php?number=79 [/quote]
