NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Ice Halos by Moonlight” is copyrighted by Alan Dyer. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

On an April night in Alberta, Canada, an almost full Moon created a complex of ice halos and arcs. These luminous apparitions are caused by moonlight refracting and reflecting through hexagonal ice crystals in high clouds. While the colors are faint to the unaided eye, long exposures reveal their detail.
