Are we actually aware that we spend most of our lives under a blanket of clouds? Even though we rarely pay attention to clouds, the sky is almost never truly cloudless. Clouds have a major impact on our lives and can tell us a lot. Vincenzo Levizzani, cloud physicist and atmospheric researcher, takes us into his world. He explains not only how (and from what) clouds are formed, but also why they reveal so much about the weather and climate. What are hydrometeors? What happens during a supercell thunderstorm? How is the radiation fog that is so popular in horror films created? Why does it hail? And why on earth do we seed clouds? He takes us on a grand tour through the universe of clouds, which once again shows us how complex and fragile, but also how beautiful, the laws of nature on our Earth are.
