Why are they different shapes?
The temperature, wind and other conditions where a cloud forms determine what type of cloud it will be.

Why does NASA look at clouds?
Clouds are important for many reasons. - We want to know if precipitation is falling.- At night, clouds reflect heat back to the surface and keep it warmer. - During the day, clouds can shade us from the
sun and keep Earth cooler. Studying clouds helps NASA better understand
Earth's weather and climate.

Which picture was taken from a satellite? How do you know?

NASA Satellites
You can see which satellites are passing over you by going to the “Check Satellite Flyovers”.You can also check and see what the satellite is “seeing” as it passes over where you are.Your participation helps NASA scientists better understand how clouds effect our Earth system.
