The saucer-shaped cloud appearing on Ba Den mountain (Tay Ninh) is called a lens cloud, a very rare natural phenomenon.
On the morning of November 24, on social networks, a clip and a photo of a giant flying saucer-shaped cloud appeared on the top of Ba Den mountain (Tay Ninh). This rare natural event caught the attention and went viral.
According to astronomers, lenticular clouds are very rare, often appearing along high mountains and lees on mountain slopes, especially when there is a steady stream of dry and moist air passing over the top of the mountain. mountain or hill.
When the layer of moist air is pushed upward and reaches a saturation point, it condenses into clouds.
The special feature of lenticular clouds is that they are always motionless, rarely moving by the wind. The characteristic shape of lenticular clouds is similar to flying saucers, so they are often misunderstood as UFOs (alien flying saucers).
Lenticular clouds are difficult to see in low-lying areas or plains. In Vietnam, there are also few lenticular clouds recorded. Therefore, the phenomenon of lens clouds on the top of Ba Den mountain (Tay Ninh) this morning is considered as interesting and very rare.
