What Noctilucent clouds look like
Noctilucent cloud season starts late May and ends during the month of August always look northwards
Observing noctilucent clouds is easy and, best of all, completely free. You don’t need any expensive telescopes, binoculars or cameras. Just a pair of eyes will be fine.
Having said that, a pair of binoculars will allow you to see fascinating detail and structure within an NLC display that is invisible to the naked eye.
You don’t need to be under a pitch black sky to see them, as a good display will be so bright that it will be visible from your back garden or even your bedroom window, as long as you’re facing north.
Noctilucent clouds typically begin to show themselves around midnight, when the summer sky is as dark as it’s going to get.
