Halo Solar TODAY in Peru

On Sunday, February 19th, the Peruvian sky was illuminated with a phenomenon called Solar Halo, which is a kind of rainbow but in the form of a circle. Do you want to know more details? Don't miss this note.

A Halo is a circle that surrounds the sun and can be captured on various mobile devices, but directly for the human eye, there may be certain complications, not only to our eyes but also to the skin. Therefore, it is recommended not to look directly at it due to the ultraviolet radiation.

Now we will explain how the appearance of this 'celestial ornament' occurs. Everything originates thanks to cirrostratus clouds, which are made up of tiny ice crystals. When the rays of the sun reach them, the trajectory deviates and the colors separate, causing a halo.
