Caption NASA originale:"(...) Pictured above are anticrepuscular rays.
To understand them, start by picturing common crepuscular rays that are seen any time that Sunlight pours though scattered clouds. Now although Sunlight indeed travels along straight lines, the projections of these lines onto the spherical sky are great circles. Therefore, the crepuscular rays from a setting (or rising) Sun will appear to re-converge on the other side of the sky.
At the anti-solar point 180° around from the Sun, they are referred to as anticrepuscular rays (...)".
