chemtrails
Contrail conspiracy theory
Chemtrails is a conspiracy theory claiming that the white trails left by aircraft are not ordinary condensation (contrails) but chemical agents deliberately sprayed for sinister purposes—population control, weather manipulation, or mind alteration.
Those aren't just contrails, they're chemtrails—the government is spraying us.
The theory has no scientific support; the trails are ice crystals formed from engine exhaust in cold air.
