Abstract
During the “Terminator” space experiment on board the International Space Station, a layeredoptical structure was discovered in the lower thermosphere. The observations were carried out in the visible(540 nm) and near infrared (700 and 830 nm) spectral ranges. A brief description of the scientific equipmentis given. This paper presents the results of processing the acquired images, which allowed interpreting themas images of an aerosol layer that has a planetary scale. Possible variants of the origin of this aerosol formationare considered.
