Those are called contrails though.
Also, they don't spread the water vapor, they just make it visible.
Water is a byproduct of proper combustion of fossil fuels. One of many. Sometimes you can see it drip from a car's exhaust pipe, or the cloud from the tailpipe on a cold morning.
Whether you see a contrail depends on the conditions the jet is flying through. They do tend to occur in high moisture areas because the ice crystals formed can't evaporate as quickly as they would in dry air.
aHA! you've been conned into thinking that1. in reality they are trails of... BUM BUM BUM!!! ~chemicals~ ~from~ ~the~ ~airplane~ ~pilot's~ ~butt~
Yes, also called contrails, short for condensation trails. Of water. A chemical.
I know conspiracy nuts call them chemtrails implying chemicals that do various things to the population. But when they omit the specifics, then it's some chemical, and it is.
Everything is a chemical.
Most everything. A photon is not a chemical.
Photonic matter is a thing. Though very very rare.
Maybe they meant every thing instead of everything. Every individual thing with mass is a chemical or part of a chemical, no?
Yes, an element is a chemical, so therefore anything made of matter is.
MODS! reported for telling the truth
