Original Note:
Contrails are visible trails of condensed water vapor that jets leave in their wake. A broken contrail can occur when a plane ascends or descends through layers of the atmosphere with different humidity levels. It can restart if the plane enters more humid air. https://contrailscience.com/broken-contrails/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-do-jets-leave-a-white/ https://airplaneacademy.com/why-do-some-airplanes-leave-contrails-and-others-dont/ https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20220823-what-makes-up-a-planes-contrails
