Haleakala's Moonbow

This wickedly magical photo is a "moonbow," a lunar rainbow created as moonlight passes through fog. It was taken at Haleakala, Maui and published on National Geographic's website.  The bright, twinkling "star" is actually Mars, and it was actually at its closest point to Earth in 2010.
