Click Click photographers line in front of the waterfall gazing at the

You see moonbows near a waterfall and at
night. You see it at night because of the
moonlight.

This moonbow is in Hawaii.

Diagram on Moonbows

This diagram shows that the
moonlight hits the waterfall
and it is kind of like a prism
and separates the spectrum
of light, (red, orange, yellow,
green, blue indigo, and violet.)

For a moonbow to appear it has to be 42 degrees or less for it
to form, and it has to be 2 or 3 hours before sunrise.

Fun Facts about Moonbows

Moonbows (also referred to as a white rainbow or lunar rainbow) are rare
natural atmospheric phenomena, which occur when the Moon’s light is reflected
and refracted off water droplets in the air. Other than the difference in the
light source, its formation is the same as for a solar rainbow. One good
location for viewing 'true moonbows' is Waimea 'Kamuela', Hawaii Island, Hawaii.

Waimea 'Kamuela', Hawaii Island, Hawaii is were

Moonbows in Hawaii

Moonbows are very common in Hawaii.

Will Moonbows ever be in Anderson or Not?

I hope to go to Hawaii or a place where moonbows are common. Sadly though
a waterfall probably will never be in Anderson so a moonbow will not be seen
in Anderson.
