I've seen hundreds of green flashes, but no blue flashes. There are photos of green flashes, but I have not seen one of the blue flash. I am talking about the blue flash seen as the sun sets. Caused by refraction of the sunlight through the earth's atmosphere. Just wanted to be clear about that. ________________________________ From: Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> To: Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2012 3:03 PM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Green Flash Brent has geography on his side. I've seen it a few times over the course of decades. Anyone ever seen the even rarer blue flash? Or the green flash of Venus? On Feb 15, 2012 11:36 AM, <jcarman6@q.com> wrote:
