Making con(densation) trails!!

Adjust the environment by dragging the Big Red Dot around to set the temperature and humidity of the environment. Click on Fly button to start the plane moving. You can change the atmospheric conditions while the plane is flying!

• The degree of supersaturation (the amount of the red line that falls to the right of the saturation vapor pressure curve) impacts the density of the contrail.
• The relative humidity impacts the rate of dissipation of the contrail
• The wind speed by adjusting the temperature (there is a maximum wind, like a jet core, around -45C) impacts the rate of spreading of the contrail.
