> > NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS?? I don't think so. The sun was too low under the horizon at the moment (20 degrees) to see noctilucent clouds. The position due east is wrong too, for pre- local midnight hours. Any noctilucent clouds would be visible north-northwest, and only earlier in the night with the sun at less than 15 degrees under the horizon. Or later in the night, with similar conditions applying. Usually NLC's are much larger phenomena too, and they are rare at 45 degrees North latitude. - Marco (who has seen a lot of Noctilucent Clouds) ------ Marco Langbroek Dutch Meteor Society (DMS) Leiden, the Netherlands 52.15896 N, 4.48884 E (WGS 84) e-mail: meteorites@dmsweb.org DMS website: http://www.dmsweb.org priv. website: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek ------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
