Original Note:
A broken contrail is caused because the amount of water in the exhaust is constant, but the amount of moisture in the air is not. https://contrailscience.com/broken-contrails/ Contrails behind a plane may last just seconds before dissipating, or it can last hours, depending on the humidity level, and may stop suddenly. https://www.space.com/what-are-contrails
