Introducing

[jenncrrl]

Hello, my name is Jennifer, I am new and learning but trying to introduce myself. I am from a small town in Alabama, and I found metabunk because I was searching on something I have been seeing. I started noticing on my way to work early in the morning around 5 a.m, that there are several jets or airplanes,making giant X's in the sky all day long. I have videos and photos. And all I can get is someone explaining what the trails are left by jets.

Those are photos of planes, and the contrails left by planes. These are normal, but can seem a bit odd if you start to spend time looking for/at them. If you give a more precise date, time, location, and direction for your video, then we can show which planes they are.

If you give a more precise date, time, location, and direction for your video, then we can show which planes they are.

Or you can look them up on a flight tracking website or app.

Hi Jennifer, you might find useful the following FAA video on the subject.

Hi! This is a bit I've saved to post on social media from time to time, as needed. It might be helpful:

Contrails are clouds that form behind airplanes when conditions are right. Burning jet fuel creates hot moist air that shoot out the back of the engine, and also a fair amount of "soot" particles. When that warm moist air hits the very cold air around the plane, it chills, and condensation forms -- and you get a long thin line of cloud. As the plane moves on, the contrail (condensation trail) cloud might evaporate again quickly, or might hang around, or might spread out.

Can contrails persist? Yes, of course, because they are clouds and clouds can persist. Can they spread? Yes, clouds can spread, too. Do they form some days but not others? Yeah, clouds do that. Might there sometimes be just one, and other times the sky is full of them? Yes, that is a thing clouds do, and contrails are clouds. Can a contrail appear bright white, while another is dark and grey against the sky? Yes, like clouds, they can appear both ways, depending on conditions. Can they have breaks and gaps in them? Sure, this is a thing clouds do, even clouds that are not contrails. Are they sometimes scattered widely, while on other days the sky is full of them? Yeah, like other clouds, they can do that. They can do anything that clouds can do… because they are clouds.

All of the features that supposedly "prove" that this line in the sky is not a contrail, and so must be a chemtrail, are features that contrails can have, because they are clouds and clouds do those things,

Some people who want us to live our life in fear of nothing are trying to make us scared of clouds. People who are afraid are easier to mislead, easier to con, easier to control. People who are spreading baseless fear do not have our best interests at heart.

Quote by: Me!

I'd add, in this case -- "Can they make big X's in the sky. Yes, because planes fly in different directions, if you have planes flying North-South, and others flying East-West, and they are leaving contrails, the contrails will have to cross! Like this set of planes over the Mediterranean Sea this morning (my morning, their afternoon).

If the red set planes and the blue set of planes and the blue ones happen to be forming contrails, there will be a nice crossing pattern in the sky there.


Hope that is useful to you!
