They are called noctilucent clouds. They were so bright. I only wish I had my camera to do a timed exposure.

I was surprised the local weather/news people didn’t report it, then I realized what sane person is up at that time of day.

Beautiful photo. That rainbow lasted for a long time.

Great shot, looks like something you’d see at the top of the Sistine Chapel.
