Scientists don't know much about how the clouds form, or why they have been appearing more often at lower latitudes and glowing brighter.
</P><P>
To find out, NASA has employed a satellite, named AIM (Aeronomy of Ice in Mesosphere) to observe two cloud seasons over both of Earth's Poles. On June 11, AIM captured its first images of night shining clouds (not shown). The satellite will also provide scientists with data on the size and shape of the particles that make up the clouds.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/06/070629-clouds-picture.html"><P>
