Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A pattern of downstream eddies in the stratocumulus clouds over the Pacific Ocean west of Baja California, was photographed by the crew of the second Skylab manned mission (Skylab 3) from the space station cluster in Earth orbit. The clouds, produced by the cold California current running to the south and southwest, are prevented from rising by warm air above them.
