The sky on
your birthday.
“A Circumhorizontal Arc Over Ohio” is copyrighted by Todd Sladoje. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteWhy would clouds appear to be different colors? Here, ice crystals in distant cirrus clouds are acting like little floating prisms. Sometimes known as a fire rainbow, a circumhorizon arc lies parallel to the horizon. For it to be visible, the Sun must be at least 58 degrees high in a sky where cirrus clouds are present.
