Polar regions appear mysterious glowing clouds

The clouds were constantly glowing and crawling towards the extreme, first captured by satellites from space. The researchers do not understand what they are. This mysterious cloud is called a " night lamp ".

"Apparently they're deforming, a sign that a part of the atmosphere is changing and we don't understand how, why or what made it so," atmospheric scientist James Russell III from Hampton University, Virginia, USA said.

"New observations show that there is a low level of global climate change and may represent an early warning that the earth's environment is changing."

Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere of NASA for the first time photographed these " night lights " on May 25. People in northern Europe began seeing them since June 6.

Clouds form at an altitude of 80 km above the soil surface, in the upper layer of the atmosphere called the mesosphere. This layer of steam and crystals appears during the southernmost summer months as well as in the summer in the North Pole.

Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere satellite will monitor two complete cloud seasons on both regions, in order to obtain complete data on the lifecycle of bright clouds. Researchers hope to answer the question of why they form and their relationship to Earth's climate change.

On June 11, 2007, the camera of AIM artificial satellite (Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere) provided the first data on noctilucent clouds in the Arctic region of Europe and North America.Bright white and blue show the noctilucent cloud structure, black where there is no data.(Photo: LiveScience)
