en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrail

 

Contrails are condensation trails (sometimes vapour trails): artificial clouds made by the exhaust of jet aircraft or wingtip vortices which precipitate a stream of tiny ice crystals in moist, frigid upper air. They are the cloud-like trails of water vapour that can be seen in the wake of airplanes, either from their exhaust or sometimes from their wing tips.

Wonder if the people in these flying chunks of metal knew how beautiful they looked last night?

This was a very funny day with the sky being absolutely full on contrails. There must have been very little wind at the upper levels. The is the same patch of sky as the last two pictures, but taken from a different place, hence there is some hillside in front of it.

A jetliner leaves a contrail behind as it chases the sunset while passing over Waimea Kauai.

I believe this is Japan Airlines (Boeing 777-200) Flight 89 Honolulu to Tokyo (Haneda) which departs at about 05:50 PM and flies over Waimea Kauai just after 6 PM (06:10 PM here).

I missed the X it created by a few seconds when I was trying to get the camera out of my pocket.

The Beluga, or Super Transporter is a rebuilt version of the A300, with a new outsize fuselage used to carry components of Airbus aircraft between the factories around Europe.

Lovely sunny afternoon walking on River Lea pathway. Must have been rather cold higher up as the sky was full of contrails. Probably trans Atlantic flights from Belgium and Holland.

This was one of the beautiful evening skies during my visit to New Mexico. What do you see up there?

We were in shadow, they were in light.

The skies over South West London start to cloud up after 20 or so Contrails/Chemtrails form over head. The Contrails/Chemtrails aren't from plans taking off from nearby Heathrow, but from overflying, or preparing to land plans.

Airplane Contrails, fragments of contrails in the sky.

...tearing across a blue sky

Did I mention it was a great day for Contrails? :-)

OMG d00dz, the one world government is totally spraying mind control chemicals all over the place and the sasquatches from the hollow earth and the Nazi moon base and I don't give a shit about your conspiracy theory, okay? I just thought it looked neat when I was standing at the bus stop this morning.

a few dots are crows in the distance

Airplane contrails spreading out in the sky.

Jets trailing each other in westerly direction, probably towards Brussels.

Airplane contrails in different shapes...

A couple hours into the new year, the contrail from a passing jet is backlit by the full moon.

Had this beautiful view of contrails and clouds lit by the dying rays of the sun as we were flying up the San Joaquin Valley on climbout from LAX.
