Baby Nautilus

Well today we have a special treat: the first baby Nautilus for Birch Aquarium at Scripps and the first Nautilus to be featured on ZooBorns! This little guy or gal was a long time in the making.

Noctilucent Clouds and Aurora Borealis

Published on Aug 11, 2013 "Displays of Noctilucent Clouds and Aurora during one night are rare. Noctilucent Clouds, NLC's for short, (aka Night Shining Clouds or Polar Mesospheric Clouds) are the world's highest types of cloud forming on the edge of space at height of about 80 km (50 miles) which is also height where auroras occur. Unlike most of other clouds types, which are mostly made of water vapour, NLCs are comprised of extremely small ice crystals. They are normally too faint to be seen, and are visible only when illuminated by sunlight from below the horizon while the lower layers of the atmosphere are in the Earth's shadow. They can be observed in the summer months at latitudes between 50° and 70° north and south of the equator."
