About Fair-weather clouds

Fair-weather cumulus clouds, the flat-bottomed puffy kind, usually form with their bases somewhere between 1 and 2 km up. They are made of tiny water droplets that condense in rising warm air.

A single small cloud can hold hundreds of tonnes of water, held aloft by gentle updrafts. Storm clouds grow far taller and can reach the height of airliners.

You reach this landmark at 163 points. It is landmark 6 of the 21 between the ground and the Moon, which waits at 930 points. Its real height is about 2.4 times that of the previous landmark, Burj Khalifa.

Answers are worth 0 to 100 points depending on how rare they are, so even a run of nothing but the rarest answers needs at least 2 holds to get here. A fall drops you to just below the last landmark you passed, so a landmark you have reached can slip away again. See how to play for the full rules.
