Original Note:
This is a Contrail trail left by an airplane. The premise of the #Chemtrail conspiracy theory is based on the mistaken belief that contrails are supposed to disappear quickly without spreading. This is false. The behavior of a contrail depends on weather conditions in the sky https://scied.ucar.edu/image/multiple-contrails
