APOD 2.7

After doing my astronomy project on the effects of Earth's atmosphere on outside phenomena, it has been a goal of mine to witness a green flash. Reading what people seemed to think it was was odd after getting the true explanation before- after-image? Hmm. It's pretty interesting to think that our atmosphere can act so much like a prism, on such a large scale. When we play with little prism toys, it's not often though of as an act-out of something larger than itself, yet it is. A blue flash would also be amazing to see, though I have less hope of having that luck. Still, on my quest to see a green flash, it is a definite possiblility.
