NASA's Flickr Account


I don't know why it took me so long to find this. So many AWESOME pictures!! The above is from the 'blue marble' series that tried to capture the most hi-res pictures of Earth from high up by compiling many many satellite shots.

A New Kind of Cloud

http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/9fba6a2ffd74.jpg


This year, sky-gazers have noted a kind of cloud previously unsubscribed in Cloud Atlases. It is being considered as a new entry in the list of types of clouds observed around the planet. It is known as Undulatus Asperatus, because of its wavy form. It's basically a layer formed between warmer/cooler and drier/wetter air. Craazy!
