I don't believe the cloud formation by particles from space idea because why would they be doing this now (we'd have to be unlucky given geological timescales) and why isn't there evidence of this in the past.
It would help if you posted a link to an article describing what you are talking about. I only vaguely remember reading something about this.verdigris said:I don't believe the cloud formation by particles from space idea because why would they be doing this now (we'd have to be unlucky given geological timescales) and why isn't there evidence of this in the past.

Particles from space are small, microscopic particles that originate from outer space. These particles can come from a variety of sources, such as comets, meteorites, and interstellar dust. When these particles enter Earth's atmosphere, they can act as nuclei for cloud formation, leading to the creation of new clouds or the enhancement of existing ones.
When particles from space enter Earth's atmosphere, they can act as nuclei for water droplets to form around. This process is known as nucleation and can lead to the creation of new clouds or the enhancement of existing ones. These particles can also increase the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere, leading to more moisture available for cloud formation.
Yes, particles from space can contribute to the greenhouse effect. When these particles enter Earth's atmosphere, they can absorb and scatter incoming solar radiation, trapping heat in the atmosphere. This contributes to the warming of the planet, known as the greenhouse effect.
While particles from space can contribute to the greenhouse effect, they are not a significant factor in global warming. Other human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, are responsible for the majority of the increase in greenhouse gases and subsequent warming of the planet.
Scientists use a variety of methods to study particles from space and their effects on Earth's atmosphere. This includes collecting samples of particles, using satellites to track their movement, and conducting experiments in controlled environments. Researchers also use computer models to simulate the interactions between particles from space, clouds, and the greenhouse effect.
