History of Cloud in Timeline
In meteorology, a cloud is a visible mass of tiny liquid droplets, frozen crystals, or particles suspended in the atmosphere. These droplets and crystals can be composed of water or other chemicals. Clouds form when air becomes saturated, either through cooling to its dew point or by gaining enough moisture to raise the dew point to the ambient temperature.
