Experience the Magic of the Moonbow: Nature’s Rare Nighttime Rainbow 🌕
Did you know the Moon can create rainbows at night? Known as a moonbow or lunar rainbow, this enchanting phenomenon happens when moonlight, rather than sunlight, passes through water droplets in the air, forming a pale, ghostly arc across the midnight sky. Moonbows are usually seen near waterfalls or during brief rain showers on nights when the Moon is full and bright, and the sky is perfectly dark.
Unlike the dazzling colors of daytime rainbows, a true moonbow is a gentler spectacle: a faint white or softly tinted curve that often needs a camera’s long exposure to reveal its hidden spectrum of colors. These moments are rare, magical, and deeply connected to the wonder of our Moon.
