      Well, not the sort of cloud(s) we look up to from Earth but on planet Saturn the remarkable hexagonal cloud is apparent.  No other planet in our solar system, as we know it, exists.  It is a wonder and not understood as to how these clouds occur and keep stable.  The geometry is amazing.

      Here is the image coming as it does from the NASA APOD page:-
