Details:
Sunset in San Diego on February 22, 2019. Multiple interesting phenomena. First, it was an omega (inferior mirage) Sunset. During the early part of sunset, a helicopter crossed the Sun and its exhaust plume caused a mirage connecting the Sun to the helicopter. Second, a distant ship's exhaust refracted sunlight causing multiple mirages, ultimately resulting in a mirage caused by the ship's exhaust above a green flash.
