Sun dog
The phenomenon of the emergence of four sun in the sky simultaneously Laiyang, China can be explained as a phenomenon sundog. Sundog or scientific name parhelion (parhelia plural) which means "beside the sun". Sundog is the atmospheric phenomenon that produces a bright spot of light in the sky. Often in the form of a ring that encircled or were in the sun. This phenomenon occurs because of refraction of light.
Ordinary light halo appears on the left-right, so often seen the sun even more in size ketch
Sundogs formed by the plate-shaped hexagonal ice crystals in high cirrus clouds and cold, very cold weather at the time, the ice crystals called diamond dust that float in the air at low levels. These crystals act as prisms, they deflect the light rays through an angle of 22 °. If the crystals are randomly oriented, a complete ring around the sun will be visible - that is a halo. However, the crystals are often submerged in the air to be aligned vertically so that the sunlight is refracted horizontally - in this case, sundogs visible.
The phenomenon of the emergence of four solar phenomena in China are not unusual, although rare indeed happen, at least for me who just learned about this the first time. 4th Sun of China which later became the news quite a scene in a number of social networking sites and she also finished in the fuel warm conversation, there is also a link with the sign of doomsday. Wow far right conclusions. After reading some news about this, then I browse to find out more, and find the answers.
Apparently the appearance of the sun more than one, which occurred in China, is just a normal phenomenon. And in direct answer by LAPAN (National Aeronautics and Space Institute), if you are interested so here is the official explanation from them, so as not to wrong perception of the future:
Apparently there was naming to the phenomenon that became a byword of this, namely a sun dog - a dog guards the sun. Logically, if something has a name, meaning he never happened before and more than once, as well as four Chinese sun. Previous means there event or occurrence report more than one sun.
