Uh, there is potentially a hugh difference between seeing the “cloud” generated and seeing the aftermath. The video shows the “cloud” being made.
The video of the missile from yesterday shows an exact opposite contrail. The large spread out contrail at the bottom is closest to the camera. You can also see the missile moving at a speed that you would never see from a large aircraft like a passenger plane.
I’ve been mulling and pondering all aspects of this all day long, and I think the contrail idea fails in this regard:
IF this had been a regular contrail, the aircraft would have had to be heading TOWARD the camera (within a few degrees of straight on) in order for it to be leaving a trail that appeared to be nearly vertical below the plane. In that case, the aircraft would appear to grow larger, and speed up as it became more nearly overhead.
As you watch the video, however, just the opposite is the case. Although the plume is below the object, which would be consistent for the contrail of an aircraft moving almost directly toward the camera position, the object producing the plume appears to grow smaller as the video goes along, and seems to slow down, which is consistent with an object moving AWAY from the camera position; NOT toward it.
An aircraft moving more or less directly AWAY from the camera position would have left a contrail that appeared to be nearly vertical, but would have been ABOVE the plane; NOT below it.
ONLY an ascending object moving AWAY from the camera could simultaneously appear to be at the top of a nearly vertical plume, appear to be growing smaller, and seem to be slowing down.
