00:00Good evening, Kapuso! I am your Kuya Kim, who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.

00:10If this is the color of our skin tonight, because did you know that there is also a rainbow at night?

00:15This is what we saw around our moon, a moonbow.

00:21Jesse really likes to connect with nature and literature.

00:27The sky in their town in Malimono, Surigao del Norte.

00:30Very mindful, very demure.

00:32I really like to shoot moons on August 19.

00:35I really have a picture of a big moon because I use a DSLR.

00:39But he said that he reached the sky where he took a picture once.

00:42When I looked up, I saw the moon next to it, the rainbow.

00:46I took my cell phone to take a picture there.

00:49The dark sky is just a reflection of a very cutesy and very colorful rainbow around the moon, a moonbow.

00:57It's my first time to see a rainbow every night.

01:01Kuya Kim, how does a moonbow form?

01:04Kuya Kim, what now?

01:05Kuya Kim, what now?

01:07Not all the time, rainbows are seen during the day.

01:10Sometimes, there are also rainbows at night because around the moon, they are called moonbows.

01:15The moonbow is an optical phenomenon where the light coming from the moon refracts to the water vapor seen in the atmosphere.

01:22To form a moonbow, there are specific conditions that are required.

01:25The observer should usually be facing the moon.

01:28And the moon has an angle of 42 degrees to the horizon.

01:33On the other side of the horizon, there should be enough water vapor or water droplets.

01:38If the moonlight is enough, usually near full moon or full moon,

01:42the possibility of a moonbow is greater.

01:45Jessie saw a moonbow last night, August 20,

01:48because she saw the supermoon, blue moon, on this August 19.

01:51Because its location is the closest to Earth, the moonbow is more visible with the naked eye.

01:57But when we look at moonbows, they are usually white.

02:01And the color of the moonbow is more visible in long exposure pictures.

02:04The reason why the color of the moonbow is less intense compared to solar rainbows

02:08is because the light coming from the sun is stronger than the light reflected by the moon.

02:14But moonbows are not the only rare and colorful phenomenon in our sky at night.

02:25Sometimes, our moon turns red.

02:29This is called a blood moon.

02:31This happens when our moon is in a total lunar eclipse or when the moon is passing through the Earth's anino.

02:38The last total lunar eclipse happened in November 2022.

02:42That's why it's called a beaver blood moon.

02:45The next blood moon will be seen in March 2025.

02:49Meanwhile, to find out the trivia behind the viral news, tweet or just comment

02:53Hashtag Kuya Kim, what's next?

02:55Always remember, the important thing to know.

02:58I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24 hours.
