Curiosity Rover snaps clouds on Mars
image for illustrative purpose
Washington NASA's Mars Curiosityrover has captured shining clouds on the Red Planet, which arrived earlier and formed higher than expected.
The atmosphere on Mars is usually thin, dry and cloudy days are rare. And clouds are typically found at the planet's equator in the coldest time of year, when Mars is the farthest from the Sun in its oval-shaped orbit.
