SPECTACULAR Three Suns Appear in the Sky Over Russia's Yamal
16:00 GMT 13.02.2019 (Updated: 10:01 GMT 30.11.2022) Residents of Russia's Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug observed "three suns" in the sky on Wednesday morning, the product of a halo which is created when sunlight interacts with ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere.
An optical phenomenon known as a halo made it seem like there were three suns in the skies of Russia's Yamal, however, this mysterious marvel is not rare in the region, a hydrometeorology curator, Artem Koshkin, told Sputnik.
According to him, halos and similar phenomena occur due to a combination of factors, but mainly depend on the condensation of little particles in the atmosphere.
