“Sun and Moon Halo” is copyrighted by Göran Strand. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThese two images, taken ten hours apart, show the Sun and a nearly full Moon in the same spot in the sky over Östersund, Sweden. Both are surrounded by circular ice halos, created by ice crystals in the atmosphere. Jupiter also shines above the waterfront lights in the night scene.
