AFTERGLOW

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 362 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
AFTERGLOW , a broad high
arch
  of. whitish or rosy light appearing occasionally in the sky above the highest clouds in the hour of deepening twilight, or reflected from the high snow-
fields
  in
mountain
  regions
long
  after sunset: The phenomenon is due to very fine particles of dust suspended in the high regions of the atmosphere that produce a scattering effect upon the component parts of
white
  light. After the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883, a remarkable
series
  of red sunsets appeared all over the world. These were due to an enormous amount of exceedingly fine dust blown to a
great
  height by that terrific explosion, and then universally diffused by the high atmospheric currents.
