False Sun (7 photos + video) Bashny.Net

Pargely (from the couple ... and Greek. Hélios - Sun) (mock sun) - a form of the halo, where in the sky there is one or more additional images of the sun. It arises from the refraction of sunlight in the anisotropic oriented particles of ice falling into the atmosphere.





In the "Lay" is mentioned that before the onset Polovtsy and capture Igor "Four of the sun shone over the Russian land."



The soldiers took it as a sign of impending great disaster.



Sometimes the sky can be seen a few suns. In fact, it can be seen the effect of millions of lenses: ice crystals. As the water freezes in the upper atmosphere, creating small, flat, hexagonal ice crystals ice.



The planes of these crystals, lace, slowly lowered to the ground, most of the time are oriented parallel to the surface.



At sunrise or sunset, the line of sight of the observer may pass through this same plane, and each crystal can act like a miniature lens, refracting sunlight.



The combined effect leads to a phenomenon called Parghelia or false sun.
