Noctilucent cloud over a city
Noctilucent cloud over a city by a river. This type of cloud, also known as polar mesospheric, is visible only in deep twilight and is seen mostly during the summer. It is the highest cloud type in the Earths atmosphere and occurs only when sunlight illuminates it from below the horizon, while the ground and lower layers of the atmosphere are in the Earths shadow. Photographed in Turku, Finland, in July
