ABSTRACT:

It rained in the night of 22nd November 2010 during the wee hours of 23rd November 2010 with the clouds silently gathered with the Moon rise on the eve of 22nd. The previous study showed the development of the rain clouds with the formation of a haze since the 18th November 2010 following the Full Moon day of 21st November 2010. The moon was near the stars of Zeta of Pisces, passed through Aries and it rained when it was located near the Eta of Taurus. Moon near Aldebaran (Rohini) and Lambda of Orion (Mrigasira) has not rained but the sky remained cloudy with the Moon predominant Air-Glows. The ancient findings of eons have changed by considerable astronomical positions and a further analysis is a dire need. What is noteworthy is that the Moon has crossed the Orion Hunter on the 24th November 2010 night and 25th Nov 2010 morning it is away from the Hunter Betelgeuse (ARDHRA?) star! Moreover the Moon had the splendid background shine of the Milky Way that can be easily noticed even with naked eye. Elsewhere the presence of cloud masses were found not obstructive to observe clearly the background Milky Way (Akasha Ganga) shine of fine structure and somewhat uniformly distributed around it for a considerable distance. The Arudhra identification in present day Astronomy Data is ambiguous in the Indian Ancient calendar. The early morning images captured, by the present author, of the Moon is breath taking in view of their splendid display of the terrestrial shadows with mountain cliffs.

Results:

The Indian Calendar has identified several stars of prominence and brightness eons ago and especially they said that the Head of the Hunter was a three straight line stars, called Invaka. The two bright stars identified by them as Jeystha and Ardhura seem to be very correct but the Arudhra identification in present day Astronomy Data is ambiguous. The early morning images of the Moon are breath taking in view of their splendid display of the terrestrial shadows with mountain cliffs.
