EDITORS COMMENTS
In the crisp air of Moscow, Russia, on the night of November 13, 1828, the populace was jolted from their slumber by an unusual and eerie sight in the heavens above. The moon, usually a beacon of tranquility and predictability, had transformed into a spectacle of natural wonder and alarm. The Lunar Corona, a rare and beautiful phenomenon, had made its appearance, casting a halo of light around the moon's edges. The Lunar Corona is a natural occurrence that occurs when the solar wind, a stream of charged particles from the sun, interacts with the moon's surface. This creates a glowing aura around the moon, making it appear larger and more radiant than usual. However, to the people of Moscow, it was a sight that stirred both awe and fear. Historical records suggest that the Lunar Corona was observed in Moscow on several occasions throughout history, but the event of 1828 was particularly noteworthy. The phenomenon was documented by various astronomers and scientists, including Friedrich Wilhelm August Argelander, a renowned German astronomer who was visiting Moscow at the time. Argelander described the Lunar Corona as a "bright and beautiful phenomenon," but also warned of the potential danger it posed. The alarm among the populace was not without reason. In ancient times, the appearance of a Lunar Corona was often seen as an omen of impending disaster, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or even war. While there is no evidence to suggest that the Lunar Corona of 1828 was directly linked to any such events, it is a testament to the power of the natural world to inspire both wonder and fear in equal measure. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the essence of that historic night in Moscow, when the Lunar Corona cast its spell over the city and left an indelible mark on the annals of history.
