Despite thousands of researches in the lab, decoding mysteries both of the Earth and the Universe, the nature seems to be still vastly unexplored. And, many findings that remain unanswered may link to a well known fact - decoding which may change several established facts!
mysterious clouds creeping out of the arctic 9
You too will experience such a feeling when find what the satellites are revealing each day they're eyeing for. Yes, a NASA satellite -- Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere -- has imaged a mysterious cloud-type called 'night-shining' or 'noctilucent' for the first time from space.
Forming 50 miles above the Earth's surface, the mysterious clouds in an upper layer of the atmosphere -- called the mesosphere - forms puffs of water vapor and crystals that can be spotted above the Northern Hemisphere's pole as well the Southern Hemisphere's pole during the summer months.
The amazing and mystic clouds are found to be on the move. The brightening new clouds and found to be creeping out of Polar Regions - but why? The answer to this is not yet known.
Atmospheric scientists James Russell III of Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia said,
It is clear that these clouds are changing, a sign that a part of our atmosphere is changing and we do not understand how, why or what it means. These observations suggest a connection with global change in the lower atmosphere and could represent an early warning that our Earth environment is being changed.
Studying the entire life cycle of these mystic shiny clouds will surely one day let researchers figure out not only the reasons behind their formations, but also their relation to global climate change.
