It's a simple question.
Why not blue or red?
When you spray your lawn with some of those liquid herbicides you lawn doesn't turn white.

You know and accept that water vapor creates white clouds. Sometimes puffy. Sometimes whispy cirrus.
You know and accept that clouds can last for days. Think hurricane or just a weather front.

So why are chemtrails ALWAYS white?

That's because they're in shadow.

There are pics of their shadows out there, never seen any black ones though.

There's orange ones too!

Clouds can be in shadow too. That makes them turn a dark shade.

I would love to see a picture of a BLACK chemtrail.

I have seen faded black trails and also a very faint pink, but in over 10 years of watching the sky being assaulted by unmarked and marked plains, only a few occasion have I seen colour in the trails.

There's iridescent ones too...

So why don't the orange ones spread out to cover the sky?

I suspect that picture was taken in the early or late sky. We do see clouds turn orange at those times.
It seems that chemtrails are always the same color as the clouds nearby.
Why is that?

Only near the plane.
Look farther back. It turned white.

Of course they appear orange at sunset or sunrise, they dye it to blend in with the clouds nearby!



PS: I'm agreeing with you, just showing that there are things that can alter the appearance of a contrail.

Show me any color contrail (or even what you think is a chemtrail) and I can show you a cloud the same color.

They are generally white though, because they are generally made of ice. So they are white for the same reasons snow is white - basically because it evenly scatters all wavelength of sunlight via refraction and diffraction.

They are white because they are just moisture in the air and water only comes naturally in one color. Clear!!

As above, they are always white because that's what colour water vapour is! Unless of course they are black ( in shadow), or orange/purple (in twilight)

I was hoping a CT believer would try to explain it.

It was a nice attempt, but chemtrailers don't pay attention to things like that; they would probably just say that "barium is white."

There's a few other similar questions that might be posed in a similar way.

- Why don't chemtrails quickly dissipate?
- Why is there a gap between the plane and the chemtrail?
- Why are there so many different kinds of chemtrail?
- Why have no meteorologists noticed chemtrails?
- Why are there no close up photos of chemtrail nozzles?

I'm sure most people could tell!


CT beleivers stear away from anything that has a concrete answer tho - they are conditioned to do so by finding that anything concrete and verifiable they claim about chemtrails is wrong!

Some people might think that being wrong all the time is a good indicator that het belief is nonsense and give it up. But CT believers generally think that them being wrong all the time is proof that eveyone else has been fooled by TPTB and only they know the truth.

I'm sure the answer to this could be as long and complex as you want.

But, in short, it's because a lot of Chemicals are colorless. Read through this wiki article to help get a better idea.

Also, the elements in question are white.

Aluminum Oxide

Appearance white solid


Barium Oxide

Appearance white solid


You're asking kind of a abstract question IMO that doesn't really make sense.

Why do aerosols like:
-Bug Spray
-Deodorant
-Air Fresheners
-Hair Spray
-Sunscreen
-and many more
.....they all come out of the can colorless
Why aren't they all rainbow colored??

Once again debunkers show up and walk in pride with their denial and lack of understanding of Chemistry.

A better question would be: Why wouldn't Chemtrails be white?
