Cirrus aviaticus, commonly known as a contrail or vapour trail, is a cloud formation which form due to pressure and temperature changes caused by aircraft jet engines in the surrounding air. Usually, cirrus aviaticus dissipates quickly, but it can remain visible for long periods of time and even spread given the right atmospheric conditions.
