Good afternoon, Rallypoint, and welcome to the May 14th Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD): "Ice Halos by Moonlight." Ice halos are created when small ice crystals in the atmosphere reflect and refract incoming light. Circles form around the sun or moon, but also in rare circumstances that paint the sky with a web of arcing halos...like we see here in an image taken the night of April 15th in Alberta, Canada. Rainbows don't need to always wait for the rain.
