Cirrus-like Clouds
This image shows bands of sunlit cirrus-like clouds in Neptune's northern hemisphere. These clouds cast shadows on the blue cloud deck 35 miles below. The white streaky clouds are from 48 to 160 kilometers (30 to 100 miles) wide and extend for thousands of miles. (Credit: Calvin J. Hamilton)
