Cloud atlas of Mars showcases array of atmospheric phenomena
Tumblr media
(This image displays two atmospheric phenomena: the white curved lines are gravity wave clouds, while the brown areas are dust lifted from the ground by wind. The color shift visible in the dust lifting event might be indicative of very fast winds, a phenomenon currently under investigation by other members of the team. Credit: ESA/DLR/FU Berlin.)
"Cloud enthusiasts have a new tool to investigate striking formations in the skies above the red planet. A browsable database of 20-years-worth of images of clouds and storms, created by the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) in Berlin, is helping scientists better understand how and where features arise in the Martian atmosphere and what they can tell us about the climate of Mars and other planets.
The Mars 'Cloud Atlas', which is available to the public, has been presented this week at the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) 2024 in Berlin by Daniela Tirsch of DLR.

The images in the Cloud Atlas have been captured by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) instrument, which has been in orbit on board the European Space Agency (ESA) Mars Express spacecraft since 2005. Although Mars has a very thin atmosphere, numerous cloud formations and dust storm phenomena can develop from water and carbon dioxide ice crystals as well as dust particles.
"Clouds on Mars are just as diverse and fascinating as those we see in our skies on Earth, with some features unique to the red planet. One of my favorite phenomena are the beautiful 'cloud streets'—linear rows of fleecy clouds that develop around the huge volcanic Tharsis rise and the northern lowlands in northern spring and summer. While they resemble cumulus clouds on Earth, they are formed under different atmospheric conditions," said Dr. Tirsch. "We also see impressive dust clouds that can spread hundreds of kilometers—a phenomenon we luckily don't experience on Earth."

I was planning on having the two next pages ready for tonight so I could keep my 2 pages every 2 weeks schedule but work has been chaotic so instead have an angry Luz. Pretend I just said it's her fault.
Tumblr media
Hopefully I'll have the second page done this week-end! I'm halfway done but got a little bit ambitious

“ Imagine a massive celestial bubble made of ice and dust surrounding our Solar System. That’s the Oort cloud ❄️🌌⁠ ⁠ 🚀 The Oort Cloud lies at the very edges of the Solar system. It’s so far away that it can’t be seen directly and remains unexplored by spacecraft.⁠ ⁠ 🌠 Long-period comets, taking centuries to orbit the Sun, provide evidence for the existence of the Oort Cloud. Scientists believe this vast region is the birthplace of these cosmic travelers.⁠ ⁠ ���️ Apart from long-period comets, the Oort cloud may feature asteroids and dwarf planets.⁠ “

"The first journal article about clouds identified by participants of the Cloudspotting on Mars project has been accepted for publication and is now available online. The article, "The Cloudspotting on Mars citizen science project: Seasonal and spatial cloud distributions observed by the Mars Climate Sounder" will appear in a special issue of Icarus titled "MRO: 16 Years at Mars." MRO is the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the Mars Climate Sounder is an instrument on MRO.
The paper shows several cloud maps, illustrating times and regions where many clouds were identified. The maps reveal several key cloud populations identified in data from the volunteers. The cloud populations include high-altitude CO2-ice clouds, clouds that form near the poles, and dusty-season water-ice clouds. The structure of the clouds follows the pattern of "thermal tides" in the atmosphere, which are global-scale oscillations in temperature. Where temperatures are lower than average, clouds are more common."

I know Skyrim would have just exploded if they did this, but I’m visually playing with this concept, but if they made Alduin Bigger, like substantially, blanketing the sky in some areas like an oppressive heavy cloud moving in he would have been so much more intimidating and they would have likely had to do something other than “Dragon number 34838947394 but in special nord heaven this time”
