Earth's atmosphere and night clouds - Earth's atmosphere, noctilucent clouds and Moon - View of the Earth's atmosphere and a crescent moon photographs from the International Space Station on July 27, 2003. Night clouds are also visible. These clouds look like cirrus but are much higher, between 75 and 90 km from the Earth's surface. Noctilucent clouds are very high clouds that look like cirrus clouds, but are much higher (75 - 90 km above the Earth's surface) than clouds that we observe every day. They are optically thin and can only be observed during twilight hours, when the sun is just below the horizon and only shines on the uppermost atmosphere. In this image, the limb of the Earth at the bottom transitions into the orange - colored troposphere, the lowest and most dense portion of the Earth's atmosphere. The troposphere ends abruptly at the tropopause, which appears in the image as the sharp boundary between the orange - and blue - colored atmosphere. The silvery - blue noctiluce

Sunset Seen From Shuttle Columbia 10/1992 - Sunset in Earth Atmosphere 10/1992 - Sunset in the Atmosphere seen by Shuttle Columbia in October 1992. This cross section of the Earth's atmosphere at sunset and earth limb displays an unusual layering believed to be caused by temperature inversions which effectively concentrate smoke, dust and aerosols into narrow layers. The top of the stratosphere can be seen as the top of the white layer thought to contain volcanic debris. The purple layer is the troposphere containing smoke from landclearing biomassels burning

Tropical Tempete Sam seen from Shuttle Columbia. - Tropical Storm Sam, Eastern Indian Ocean - Tropical Tempete Sam seen by Shuttle Columbia over the Indian Ocean in January 1990. Tropical Storm Sam, Eastern Indian Ocean, exact location unknown, was begining to decay when this photograph was taken. The storm was mostly at sea for its entire duration and had little effect on land. The eye of the storm is still visible with the gyre of swirling clouds rotating clockwise. Winds aloft have begun to shear the tops of the thunderstorms associated with the storm forming a high cirrus cloud cover over the center of the storm

Low pressure system off Iceland - Low - pressure system near Iceland coasts. - Low pressure region near Iceland coast seen by Aqua satellite on September 4, 2003. A beautifully - formed low - pressure system swirls off the southeastern coast of Greenland, illustrating the maxim that nature abhors a vacuum.” The vacuum in this case would be a region of low atmospheric pressure. In order to fill this void, air from a nearby high - pressure system moves in, in this case bringing clouds along for the ride. And because this low - pressure system occurred in the Northern Hemisphere, the winds spun in toward the center of the low - pressure system in a counter - clockwise direction; a phenomenon known as the Coriolis force (in the Southern Hemisphere, the Coriolis force would be manifested in a clockwise direction of movement). The clouds in the image resembled pulled cotton and lace as they spun in a lazy hurricane - like pattern. This huge system swirled over the Denmark Strait in between G

Malaspina Glacier, Alaska. 08/1989 - Malaspina Glacier, Alaska, U.S.A. August 1989 - Malaspina Glacier, Alaska, observes from Space Shuttle Columbia. Malaspina Glacier can be seen just left of the center of this northeast - looking, low - oblique photograph. Located in southern Alaska on the shore of the Gulf of Alaska, Malaspina Glacier is a classic example of a piedmont glacier lying at the foot of a mountain range - - in this case, the Saint Elias Mountains (just north of the glacier). The glacier covers an area of 1500 square miles (3900 square kilometers) on the coastal plain, is almost 60 miles (97 kilometers) long, and is more than 1000 feet (300 meters) thick. The Seward Ice Field is the main source of ice for the glacier. The glacier moves in surges that push earlier - formed moraines outward into expanding concentric patterns, which you can see along the flanks of the ice mass. To the northwest of Malaspina Glacier is the curved and pointed Agassiz Glacier, which is also fed

Hurricane Elena on the Gulf of Mexico 09/1985 - Hurricane Elena, Gulf of Mexico September 1985 - Hurricane Elena on the Gulf of Mexico seen by Shuttle Discovery on 01/09/1985. Hurricane Elena, with wind speeds in excess of 110 miles per hour (177 kilometers per hour), was photographed in the Gulf of Mexico on September 1, 1985 from the space shuttle Discovery. Almost the entire storm can be seen in this high - oblique photograph. For instance, a number of thunderstorms with their overshooting tops, the spiral bands of numerous thunderstorms leading to the eye of the hurricane, and numerous cloud gravity waves within the spiral bands can be seen. Some portions of the eye wall, where the most destructive winds of the storm occur, are also visible. This storm eventually made landfall near Gulfport, Mississippi
