Observations of the Noctilucent clouds
We would like to show here a little collection of the photographs
of NLC obtained during our observations of this phenomena .
The observations in 1998 were carried out by the expeditional team of
our planetary laboratory ( V.D.Vdovichenko and G.A.Kirienko) jointly with
North-Kazakhstan University (A.A.Solodoivnik).
These observations were connected with the space flight of Kazakhstan
cosmonaut T.Musabaev, who observed NLC from the orbital station "MIR".
Although the color pictures are more beautiful we prefere to give here mostly
the black&white scanned copies of the
color photographs because they show some more details thanks to higher
contrast of the images.
Sorry, this page is now under construction and not all images
are prepared finally...
