Mysterious green
sunsets were reported after the massive eruption of Krakatoa in 1883 – now
simulations show how they were created and just how rare they are.
How did the ice age begin?
If we leave evolutionistic consideration aside, the
real culprit might be the flood of Noah’s day, with eruptions covering the most
of the Earth.
“Strange green sunsets reported after the 1883
eruption of Krakatoa were probably caused by the large amount and size of
sulphur aerosols the volcano injected into the stratosphere.
“How can physics or nature create green twilight
colours?” says Christian von
Savigny at
the University of Greifswald in Germany, who became intrigued after reading
descriptions of such sunsets in the months after Krakatoa’s eruption in
Indonesia.”
