The video was actually recorded in December, 2017 by HÃ¥kan Hammar, although it recently resurfaced and went viral on Twitter. In the video, Hammar and his fellow skiers are treated to what is ultimately the result of sunlight being refracted off a series of hexagonal ice crystals in the atmosphere. Essentially, when sunlight, or moonlight, arrives at a place on Earth’s surface cold enough to have ice crystals in the air, observers have a decent shot at witnessing one of these 22° halos. This is because the incoming waves of sunlight or moonlight are bent as they pass through the ice crystals, and directed toward different spots on the ground. In other words, the ice crystals form a lens that points the incoming light at a certain spot, and if an observer happens to be at that spot they’ll get an eye full of 22° halo.
