NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

“Mammatus Clouds over Nebraska” is copyrighted by Jorn Olsen Photography. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.

COSMIC MESSAGE

Normally, cloud bottoms are flat because moist, warm air condenses into water droplets at a specific height. However, under certain conditions, cloud pockets can form. These pockets contain large droplets of water or ice that fall into clear air as they evaporate, creating these bubble-like mammatus clouds, often near thunderstorms.
