Venus


The atmospheric weather on Venus is something we don't experience on earth. The VMC, Venus monitoring camera has produced some amazing footage recently. Venus looks to be covered in a layer of gray smog that covers the planet, then dissappears just as quickly. This photo shows the picture in black and white because of the ultraviolet wavelengths of light. Pretty sweet pic.
