March 24, 2026, 05:15 Moscow time, Troparyovo-Nikulino district, Moscow. Observed noctilucent clouds stretching from northeast to east. Altitude above the horizon approximately 20 to 45 degrees. No other cloudiness observed, wind speed minimal, air temperature -2…+1°C. Sunrise at 06:23 Moscow time; during the observation, the Sun was 9 degrees below the horizon.

Thus, this is a relatively early observation of noctilucent clouds at Moscow's latitude.

The appearance of the noctilucent clouds is explained by an evening launch from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome.
