At sea level air is about 1.25 kg/m³, so for one cubic kilometer cloud that is :
1 250 000 tons.
I put your result into table to show a problem at 51 km and above… since density decreases monotically with altitude.
mass (tons) | altitude (km) |
---|---|
1 250 000 | 0 |
364 000 | 11 |
88 000 | 20 |
860 | 51 |
64 | 71 |
Clouds can be easily 10 cubic km.
I read through these and try to understand them but mostly I don’t like those theories, because (in part) more and more there are disparities between them and observations.
So I came up with some ideas myself, one of which I wrote in here :
“New physical cosmological model : is it coherent ?”
But it may take a few years or a few thousand before we have a good cosmology.
