At least three separate optical phenomena are visible in the new images. Each of which is created by light refracting through millions of perfectly aligned ice crystals in the upper atmosphere.
A scientist recently snapped a series of shining arcs and halos of light surrounding the sun in the sky above the U.K., including an exceptionally rare ring of light that circled the entire sky.
The arcs and halos are caused by millions of tiny, perfectly positioned ice crystals in the upper atmosphere, which often accompany thin cirrus clouds, Fitzsimmons said."If the winds are very uniform up there, the hexagonal-shaped crystals align," he added."This allows the sunlight refracting through them to combine, just as light refracts through a prism, producing arcs and circles of sunlight.
A full parhelic circle is very rare because it requires at least five internal reflections from millions of individual ice crystals, all catching sunbeams simultaneously, according to Spaceweather.com.
