Can we see rainbows and glories in the atmospheres of terrestrial exoplanets orbiting around nearby stars with the Habitable Worlds Observer, a proposed 6m diameter space telescope? This was a project I worked on this week during a workshop I helped organise on "Optimal Exoplanet Imagers" at the #LorentzCenter in #Leiden this past week. Short answer: yes, for a handful of nearby stars if they have a terrestrial planet in the Habitable Zone! #astrodon #exoplanets #rainbow

Firefall
Firefall is a relative newly discovered phenomenon discovered in Yosemite National Park not to be confused with the old firefall that was manmade.
This is a tough shot to get and some years it doesn't happen.
This is Horsetail Falls. In February, for roughly 10 days, the sun comes into alignment and reflects off of the rocks to create this phenom.
