👉 Amsterdam Light Particles, also known as atmospheric light particles or noctilucent clouds' constituent components, are tiny ice crystals that form in the upper atmosphere, specifically between 76 and 85 kilometers above Earth's surface, during the summer months at high latitudes. These particles are primarily composed of water ice, though they can also contain trace amounts of other substances like ammonia and methane. They appear as wispy, wispy, or feathery streaks in the night sky, often visible against the dark backdrop of the Milky Way, and are a result of the unique conditions where water vapor condenses into ice crystals at extremely low temperatures. These particles are significant indicators of climate change, as their presence and activity can be influenced by factors like global warming and changes in atmospheric composition.
