Correct answer: Nacreous clouds

Nacreous clouds, also known as mother-of-pearl clouds, form in the extremely cold winter stratosphere. They diffract sunlight into brilliant pastel colors, creating a stunning visual display. However, they also play a harmful role in the environment by hosting chemical reactions that destroy the ozone layer. Photo: Alan Light from Charlotte, USA.
