Scientific paper

A VERY perfect lunar rainbow was seen here last night. I noticed it first at 9.42. At that time the northern portion of it only was visible, but its intensity steadily increased, and by 9.45 the arch was complete. Both at the northern and southern extremities there was a peculiar glare, extending upwards about 20°, the apex of the arch being remarkably clear and well-defined. The rainbow faded away as rapidly as it had been developed, and at about 9.50 had entirely disappeared. At the time of the occur rence the western portion of the heavens was very clear, and the moon about 8° above the horizon. Temperature cold, with a biting wind from W.S.W.
