| Caption | A complex atmospheric optics display is seen over/in the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, in Yellowstone National Park, on the morning of January 29, 2019. The display includes a 22 degree halo, parhelia (sun dogs), and a lower solar pillar. What looks like stars is actually diamond dust; it's caused by tiny tumbling ice crystals. | |
