Original Note:
The streaks seen behind airplanes, known as contrails, are simply water vapor. They form when hot, moist air from jet engines meets the cold upper atmosphere, causing water droplets or ice crystals to condense. https://scied.ucar.edu/image/multiple-contrails https://www.britannica.com/science/vapor-trail https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/learn-about/weather/types-of-weather/clouds/other-clouds/contrails
