Colorful Arcs over Buenos Aires

COSMIC MESSAGE
Sometimes the sky gives us a double rainbow, or something even more unusual. These colorful arcs appear over Buenos Aires, Argentina, caused by sunlight refracting through ice crystals in Earth's atmosphere. The upper arc is a 22-degree halo, a common sight around the Sun. The lower arc, known as a circumhorizon arc or 'fire rainbow,' is rarer.
