Now, researchers have analyzed microplastics in clouds above mountains. They suggest that these tiny particles could play a role in cloud formation and, in turn, affect weather. Skip to main content ...

Stock images of storm clouds and microplastics (inset). Researchers have found microplastics in clouds above mountains in China, and think that they may trigger cloud formation in the skies.

NASA Odyssey orbiter snapped a first-ever image of a Mars volcano peeking above clouds before dawn. It’s twice as tall as Earth’s largest volcano.

Higher clouds above the lake-effect bands can also be seen moving into the state, moving at a different speed than the lake-effect bands below. This indicates a change of wind speed with height in ...
