Contrails/lLine

Contrails (short for candensation tails) are condensation of water vapor from plane engines..The vapor may form ice crystals which are then visible > I wonder if as a young person in the 50's was I alone with believing that lots of contrails meant that war was about to start..bombers going to Russia?? maybe it was my older brother spooking me..

Did anyone else remember this?

Thanks for the lesson. I didn't know that about contrails--neither the cause of them or the supposed meaning of them when we were kids--I never heard that interpretation.

Nice images--as Trish said, good interpretation.
