Scientific paper

At 7h 36m P. M., there was an extraordinary appearance in the heavens. Immediately above the true sun,at a distance of 23°, was an oval-shaped, mock sun δ, colourless and not bright; at the distance of 90° from the true sun, and on its horizontal level were two double mock suns, α β, strongly prismatic and very brilliant. They were oval, and from each a flame-like ray extended in the opposite direction to the true sun, portions of a circle of 90° in diameter passed through these mock suns and also through an unusually large mock sun γ, situated 45° immediately above the true sun, and which was prismatic and almost too brilliant to look at; from this mock sun there was also a portion of a circle of 45° in diameter.
