Specifically, the disappearance of the fluffy stratocumulus clouds could inhibit some of the Earth’s ability to reflect sunlight back and cool itself, causing the climate to go “over a cliff ...

Researchers found that 40% of molecular clouds in the Small Magellanic Cloud are 'fluffy', offering new insights into early star formation. Stars form in regions of space known as stellar nurseries, ...
