Rainbows in sky and water

The following two stories of a contrail and dust on a pond forming rainbows....Looks like something far worse than this going on but believe it if you wish.

MISSILE PATTERNS: Here's something else that's not a rainbow. Alfredo Garcia Jr. photographed the display from Tucson, Arizona, on Wednesday morning, Sept. 13th:
"There was a THAAD missile test conducted at White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. We could see the missile's trail glowing in the early morning sky all the way from Tucson," he says.
Actually, the test was a failure. One missile was supposed to intercept and destroy another--but the target missile failed to launch properly. The frustrated destroyer left an icy contrail that caught the rays of the morning sun, producing these iridescent colors.
"These colored bands are not a rainbow," explains atmospheric optics expert Les Cowley. "They are an effect not in the books called 'Quételét Patterns.' Pollen grains dusting a lake stay dry and ride just above the water surface. They scatter light rays that interfere with other rays reflected from the water to make a colored pattern.
