Actually, the real diehards (one such is a character called Dane Wigington) claim that
(a) old movies are being re-released with contrails digitally added into them, to make it look as though contrails have been around for decades. (He made this claim when people started pointing to films from the 1960s that clearly showed persistent contrails!)
(b) textbooks have been rewritten to include fake “contrail science” and planted in classrooms and libraries. Again, old books have been covertly replaced and reprinted.
You just can’t argue with logic like that!
Maybe I’m dense, but I still don’t understand what the contrail has to do with it.
Spraying material behind a plane so it falls down towards the ground is done all the time; that’s what crop-dusting is. Is that all you’re describing? Or are you saying that the contrail itself has something to do with it? Because the contrail is just a temporary cloud of condensed water droplets, which will travel a few feet sideways then evaporate again, and I’m not sure how that makes any difference to spraying chemicals.
The US government has been secretly training geese to disperse these chemicals at high altitude for decades. Ever wondered why they fly in a V shape? They were housed and trained at Area 51 - a USAF base.
Sometimes you see a persistent contrail, one that doesn’t just “travel a few feet sideways then evaporate again” but which is still visible for what seems like hours after the plane has passed.
Those are the ones the conspiracy folks are concerned over.
The “Chem” is secretly mixed into the fuel and is a powerful catalyst, that only works visibly when the plane is flying through air that is very close to the dew point. In fact, it is 90% less effective when you can see the contrail - the ones with no contrail are the real killers. It creates a persistent secret chemical that is slowly building up and will reach a critical level in 2017, on Easter. The antidote is…
Hold on, the dog is barking and there seems to be a silent black helicopter right above my house, I’ll tell you the rest in another post in a few minutes.
Yes, those are exactly the kind of photos that chemtrail idiots love to post, because to the uninitiated they could indeed be mistaken for some kind of spraying equipment — and of course, chemtrailers won’t ever bother to find out what they really are.
Yes, because they don’t understand simple atmospheric physics.
If the air at the altitude a plane is flying at is (a) cold enough and (b) sufficiently saturated with water vapour, then you will get a spontaneously spreading contrail that can persist for hours.
The science was pretty well understood half a century ago. Here’s a paper on it from 1961:

Like I said, on another forum I have been using weather charts to predict whether or not contrails will form and persist. It’s pretty straightforward.
Last week above London I observed a Dreamliner at 38,000ft laying a trail from horizon to horizon that was still plainly visible two hours later.
I lived next to a SAC base as a preschooler & asked about those white lines in the sky; think they were called “vapor trails” back then. This RB-36 has contrails coming from the props. (There were 4 jet engines, too.) If any idiot claims the picture’s been retouched, I’ll tell them what I remember.
Contrails at a high altitude are subject to the same atmospheric phenomena that can make clouds assume odd shapes. (Or disperse quickly–or remain for some time, as** Colophon** explained.)
(Have we actually had any True Believer show up on this thread?)
Of all the conspiracy theories I’ve heard, chemtrails make the least sense to me. I’m OK with the idea that the government* has capabilities that are more sophisticated than we’re aware of. I’m OK with the idea that they’re willing to put their own citizens’ lives and health at risk, if that furthers some agenda and they think they won’t be held to account for it. But chemtrails…what the hell *use *would they be?
You spray chemical X into the air at 30,000 feet, presumably to see what effect it has on the people who come into contact with it, as far as I can gather. But how on earth do you collect the data to find out? You don’t have any way of knowing who did and didn’t come into contact with the chemical. You don’t know what areas it actually landed on, because the wind would blow the vapour around in ways that aren’t completely predictable or measurable. You don’t know which inhabitants were out of town that day. You don’t know which inhabitants left town the next week and so aren’t being counted in your data. You don’t know which inhabitants only moved into town the next week and so are being counted in your data but shouldn’t be. If you’re trying to determine whether chemical X causes an increase in verrucas, or whatever, there is absolutely no way that a chemtrail full of chemical X would give you that data.
What are they supposed to be for?
*The US government. Our lot barely have the capability to tie their own shoelaces.
I can answer this since I have a CT nut in the family: “They” take an antidote. My CT nut carries around a little bottle with an eye dropper and puts a few drops in (apparently) everything she drinks. I haven’t explicitly asked what’s in it or where she got it but I gather she bought it from someone she met online. It’s basically the liquid form of a tinfoil hat.
What’s being sprayed is something kinda like kryptonite, to counter beings kinda like kryptonians. Without the “factor x” that’s been impregnated into out atmosphere, a small group of people would have powers that would result in them taking over the world. You need to thank the gov’t for this effort. (unless are you one of the “kryptonians”, I guess).
We know we pump fuel in on the ground and burn it at altitude. Aren’t those exhaust fumes bad enough, why do we need to add any “Chemical X” to make this case.
Doesn’t she know those drops also have a form of the chemical in them??? They sell those to catch people who need a higher dose than they get from the chemtrails.
This, of course, is the real reason the chemtrail conspiracy exists.
Incidentally, you know those same sites that warn about the OMG TOXIC ALUMINIUM COMPOUNDS in the chemtrails? Quite a few of them also sell zeolite as a natural remedy. Eat one teaspoon a day. Yup, zeolite as in aluminosilicate.
But that’s OK because the aluminium in zeolite is bound to oxygen atoms, not like the aluminium in HIGHLY TOXIC… er… aluminium oxide :rolleyes:
So what you’re trying to say is that chemtrails might be real… and if a nefarious chemical is being released, it’s homeopathic? Now I’m really scared. With so little chemical being released it must be REALLY strong. :smack:
That could very well be the stuff; the bottle certainly looks like I remember it (I only see her once or twice a year). The only thing is she mumbled “something silver something” being in the drops and there’s nothing like that mentioned on the web page. I probably heard her wrong, though, because I think she paid $30.
The added stupidity is that if the chemtrail CT was true do you really think they’d let a website sell it online? They are capable of pulling off 9/11 but they can’t seem to shut down someone who KNOWS something!
