Caught this on NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day site. Being that it appeared over Colorado, I thought y'all might enjoy having a look.

Good point, Stan. Was Phish playing in town recently? Ozric Tentacles?

I took a photo of this effect in February and always wanted to know what caused it. Not quite as cool as the photo in the link though.

Cool! I always wondered what that effect was.

chem trails, you listen to too much Coast to Coast AM. I still miss Art Bell though. Anyways, quite fascinating, it looks like when you get oil in a puddle of water with all the different colors
