Last night at about 6:15 pm, I noticed this super bright pink line in the sky. It was almost exactly N<->S. I’m in the Space Coast, Florida if that helps. I’ve never seen plane contrails look like this. Weird thing is that it almost looked like if the area in the center of the line was ionized, plasma-like. Unfortunately the camera didn’t pick up how vivid the line was. In another picture it almost seems like the line makes a 90 degree turn due east at the northern tip of it.
I thought maybe a meteor since there was that Taurid shower a few days but I don’t know if meteors fall N to S and if they ionize clouds like that. I don’t know if that actually is even ionization. We also have a lot of aerospace research companies here so who knows if it could be that?
Hoping someone can chime in with what it might be.
Chemtrails!!! They’re turning the freakin’ frogs gay!!!111
/s
I mean the frog thing was true. Kinda.
Probably a plane that disrupted the clouds and the sunset is reflecting off them different than the rest.
I’m gonna check out flight paths from yesterday to see if that’s the case. I’m real close to an airport so I wouldn’t doubt that to be the case. It’s more the color it was that threw me off.
Well?!
He’s dead. The aliens took issue and doubled back.
Not dead but my uh… orifices are not ok.
You signed the forms, you knew what you were agreeing to
Probed.
Been busy but I tried to search on my phone and all I could find was live flight tracking data. Hoping to check on my laptop later tonight.
The evidence I’d add to that is it seems to start in the middle of a section of clouds, and then slowly change the width of the disturbed area. If the line makes that hard 90 degree turn that OP mentioned, it could be the final descent pattern of a plane landing at an airport.
My non-expert but I just read a book about clouds guess:
Those cirrus clouds are typically made of ice crystals. A plane disturbed them, leaving a contrail of water. Water refracts light differently than ice, seen more clearly at dusk.
That would make total sense given the time of day. I hadn’t thought about the different make up of a cloud due to altitude.
Not a meteorologist but definitely aliens. Don’t get probed man.
I’m not a meteorologist, but I do know a thing or two about plasma.
Plasma is very short lived. Think on the order of microseconds at atmospheric pressures. So unless there was a massive linear source of power along the whole length, this isn’t plasma.
The visual effects probably have to do with the fact that the sun was very low. I’m guessing the particle size distribution in that line is notably different from the size of particles in the clouds surrounding it, leading to much stronger reflection of evening light.
I am curious as to the meteoroligical explanation for the line though.
Makes sense about plasma being short lived. It was just so close to the color I imagine an aurora to be along with the glow. I mentioned in another comment but I’m gonna look at the flight paths near here at that time to see if something comes up.
So disappointed that no meteorologist said: “a meteor probably”.
All things serve the beam!
See the Turtle! Ain’t he keen!
Looks like a contrail from one or more airplanes near the same altitude of the clouds.
It looks a little like a Skyfall.

Just looking around, my money is on violent
I sent a link to my local TV meteorologist. Will update if I hear back.
