Nacreous clouds, forming at altitudes of 15-25 km (10–20 miles), up in the stratosphere, at temperatures of around -85˚C (-121˚F), these clouds show beautiful iridescent pastel hues as they scatter the light from the Sun when it is just below the horizon. Sometimes called ‘mother-of-pearl clouds’, their tiny, uniform ice crystals are very good at diffracting sunlight. This classic example was spotted in December of a prior year, over Nottingham Castle, Nottingham, England.
