It's a bird! It's a plane! Is it a really weird contrail?
The official explanation from Alaska's Department of Public Safety is that there was a cloud formation over Palmer that caused fears of Russian or alien invasion.
The photos of the weird worm-like thing posted to a local Facebook group are quite strange. According to the woman who posted them, they were taken around sunrise over a period of about 45 seconds, and according to users in the comments, it has gotten Alaskans pretty freaked out.
You can see the object making the fumes in the photos. One user wrote that it was a plane that broke apart in a free fall.
While photos of the strange phenomenon made their way onto right wing and conspiracy websites and fueled speculation that the strange phenomenon could be Russian, Chinese, or extraterrestrial in origin, or even a sign of Biden's winter of death, it wasn't until photos of the strange phenomenon made their
troopers believe that the photos and videos were taken when a large commercial jet was flying in that area.
There has been lots and lots of weird explanations, and this one won't satisfy those who think the likely contrail is the next Pandemic in North America.
We will have to take their explanation at face value, unless we want to believe it.
