Definitely an AI fake.

A complete Rainbow... photo was taken at around 30k ft above the Earth. On the ground, we usually only see the arc half of the circle.

There seems to be doubt about the authenticity of the pic:

@Rojertb Pretty sure this is fake. Rainbows are always perfect (partial) circles, no matter how you look at them (you can’t look at them from the side). And they need the sun exactly behind them (maybe exactly in front for exotic variations). And the circle doesn’t continue in the bottom left after the cloud.
Tl;dr: probably AI gen, maybe old skool shopped.

@Rojertb Oh this version had suspicious Chinese(?) characters cropped off. Here’s a bigger version on Reddit:
