Original Note:
contrails - an abbreviation for condensation trails. The reasoning behind why these "sky art" lines are formed can be explained with the analogy of why you can see your breath in the air at certain times. The water vapor present in the jet exhaust condenses and could freeze. https://www.spartan.edu/news/trails-in-the-sky-all-about-contrails/#:~:text=These%20white%20lines%20are%20referred,exhaust%20condenses%20and%20could%20freeze.
