Is it theoretically possible to visualize wind currents by, like, shining UV-light (that diffracts strongly in the atmosphere)? Basically instead of putting smoke in the air, use the part of spectrum where all air is smoky.
- anfractuosity 3y agoInteresting question, it sounds like you can - https://www.esa.int/Applications/Observing_the_Earth/FutureEO/Aeolus/Measuring_wind https://www.esa.int/Applications/Observing_the_Earth/FutureE... "Its laser fired pulses of ultraviolet light towards Earth’s atmosphere. This light bounced off air molecules and particles such as dust in the atmosphere. The small fraction of light that scattered back towards the satellite was collected by a large telescope."
