Hi Ric

Oh well, that rules out instrumentation artifacts!

At those low temperatures (brrr!) I suspect this might have been caused by some atmospheric phenomenon, reflections from airborne ice crystals perhaps?

SpaceWeather sometimes publishes photos of atmospheric phenomenon but I don’t recollect having seen what you described.

Cheers

Dennis
