Chemtrial Nonsense

Conspiracy theorists are funny little people, these modern day Chicken Little’s can’t even look up in the sky without scarring themselves with imagined threats. Take Condensation trails for instance, these have been around as long as man has used fuel burning engines to fly.  these trails are formed by the rapid cooling of the exhaust from both piston and jet engines, which contains water vapor from moisture in the air the combustion process. Much like one’s breath shows up on a cold day, the engine exhaust condenses in the cold high altitude air. It forms microdroplets of water, sometimes this will freeze into tiny particles of ice. Contrails can also be formed from moisture within the air which is condensed by the pressure from the aircraft wings and fuselage and may form trails from wingtip vortices or around other areas of the aircraft that develop turbulence.

1944 Over the Battle of the Bulge

Condensation Trail are a real and harmless phenomena, but to the conspiracy theorist they turn into secret chemical spraying operation called Chemtrails by known or unknown powerful entities.

Conspiracy theorist  insist that chemtrails are different and that they can be distinguished from contrails. They claim that contrails are  thin and disperse quickly, while chemtrails are longer lasting and hang in the air in a manner that water vapor would not, as if they never seen a cloud. They also claim that it can be demonstrated by the fact that multiple aircraft may be seen at the same time, with some leaving trails and others do not forgetting altitude matters, a jet flying higher or lower may be in a jet stream with very different temperature and humidity, an aircraft flying only slightly higher can produce a contrail and the lower aircraft none.

B17 Bombers over Germany

You don’t have to look to far to find pictures of WWII aircraft leaving contrails. so are we to believe the US and England sprayed Germany with chemicals? In a recent article in New Scientist researchers found the extra water vapor released into the air over England with the formation of larger bomber groups may have had a small effect on local temperatures, but the effect is small and would involve larger numbers of aircraft flying in close assembled formations. Any effect vapor trails would come only from the blocking of sunlight and even then it would be negligible.

You will also notice these “Chemtrails” are more likely to form when you see Cirrus clouds.  Atmospheric clouds that are characterized by thin, wispy strands, often bunched into tufts very much like contrails.

The one thing the conspiracy theorist never want to address is the old critical thinkers question of  WHY? If you wanted to distribute some mind altering drug WHY do it at 2000 feet when doing it at much lower altitudes would work much more effectively. WHY use a chemical that leaves a trail at all? Gasses do not need to be seen to work you know.

The other question is HOW?  These trails obviously come from passenger aircraft, seen it myself, so HOW do you get the passenger service to go along with this? Why don’t you see passenger aircraft mechanics questioning chemical spraying equipment in their jets?
