Lenticular Clouds over Mount Etna

NASA APOD · Dario Giannobile
COSMIC MESSAGE

What's happening above that volcano? Although Mount Etna is erupting, the clouds are not related to the eruption. These are lenticular clouds, formed when moist air is forced upwards near a mountain or volcano. The scene was captured by chance when an astrophotographer went to Mount Etna to photograph the Moon and Aldebaran.
