This morning I saw an interesting documentary on public access. A group of people claim to have documented evidence that airplanes have been used over the last six years to deliberately spray aerosol substances throughout the world's sky. In addition to scientific analysis of air samples, visibility reports, magnetic fields, and so on, they have some compelling photographs, including the following one.

The first photo shows the sky after several airplanes crossed over it. Contrails streak across the sky. However, instead of dissipating into the air as normal contrails do, the contrails remain in place and expand. Clouds then form around the airborne material, thereby covering what was initially a clear sky.

Local residents in rural areas of New Mexico have observed their sky change from a deep blue in the mid-90s to a pale white-blue today. With increasing numbers of people experiencing respiratory problems such as asthma, it certainly is an intriguing hypothesis.

So far the experts in government and industry are denying anything than ordinary contrails. I don't know the science here, but it seems to me that contrails dissipate very quickly; they do not streak across the entire sky. If there is streaking across the sky, possibly unintentionally, we should figure out why that is and assess the environmental impact. It should not simply be dismissed as the EPA, Pentagon, and other agencies have done so far.
