Re: AREA 51
NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS: On May 5th, experienced sky watchers in Northern Ireland
were surprised by a sudden apparition of electric-blue noctilucent clouds
(NLCs). This marks an unusually early beginning to the 2008 NLC season and may
herald a spectacular summer of high-latitude "night shining" clouds. NLCs first
appeared in the 19th century mainly around Earth's poles. Since then, for
reasons unknown, they have increased in number and range, with sightings in
recent years as far south as Utah and Colorado. Visit http://spaceweather.com
to see the first photos of 2008 and to learn what to look for in case NLCs visit
your part of the world in the nights ahead.
Glow-in-the-dark Clouds! Coincidence? ;D :dontknow:
