Noctilucent Clouds filmed with Night Vision over the UK

Buy video

Night vision filming of a noctilucent cloud display see over the UK on 30 June 2020 at 23:00 hrs.
I just managed to film the last 10 minutes of the display before it faded out below the horizon to the north.
For this video I have added colour filters in an attempt to recreate how this looked to the naked eye.
Played at 10x speed.

Noctilucent clouds are extremely rare collections of ice crystals, occasionally appearing in late clear summer evenings after sunset, but before it gets completely dark. They become visible about the same time as the brightest stars appear and often stay visible after dark because they are still reflecting sunlight due to their great height. They are higher up than any other clouds, occupying the layer of atmosphere known as the Mesosphere, and are only seen at latitudes between 45°N and 80°N in the Northern Hemisphere, and equivalent latitudes in the southern hemisphere.
