Lunar Corona - Atmospheric Optics

The moon is rising over the Palmyra palm or wine palm, or ice apple (Borassus flabellifer) trees, the day before the lunar eclipse, and the corona is visible around the Waxing Gibbous Moon in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on June 9, 2025. Lunar corona is occurring when water droplets of thin clouds drift across a bright moon, creating the appearance of a bright disk with faintly colored rings.
