These clouds are byproducts of space shuttle Atlantis's solid rocket boosters. Lit up by the setting sun they look beautiful, but are a toxic mix of ammonium perchlorate (oxidizer, 69.6 percent by weight), aluminum (fuel, 16 percent), iron oxide (a catalyst, 0.4 percent), a polymer (a binder that holds the mixture together, 12.04 percent), and an epoxy curing agent (1.96 percent).

Wow that's a pretty neat effect the rockets make. Wonder if it's actually good for the environment...
