Last night at about 6:15 pm, I noticed this super bright pink line in the sky. It was almost exactly N<->S. I’m in the Space Coast, Florida if that helps. I’ve never seen plane contrails look like this. Weird thing is that it almost looked like if the area in the center of the line was ionized, plasma-like. Unfortunately the camera didn’t pick up how vivid the line was. In another picture it almost seems like the line makes a 90 degree turn due east at the northern tip of it.
I thought maybe a meteor since there was that Taurid shower a few days but I don’t know if meteors fall N to S and if they ionize clouds like that. I don’t know if that actually is even ionization. We also have a lot of aerospace research companies here so who knows if it could be that?
Hoping someone can chime in with what it might be.
Hey all, I saw news about starlink internet satellites making such trails in sky. Can’t it be this? Nobody mentioned it.
How? They orbit quite a lot higher than the highest clouds.
Highest clouds are like 70-90km. Starlink Sats are 500km+
Right. Hadn’t thought about that. Thanks.
So disappointed that no meteorologist said: “a meteor probably”.
A rip in the multiverse. Source: trust me bro
Looks like a contrail from one or more airplanes near the same altitude of the clouds.

Just looking around, my money is on violent
Chemtrails!!! They’re turning the freakin’ frogs gay!!!111
/s
I mean the frog thing was true. Kinda.
Not a meteorologist but definitely aliens. Don’t get probed man.
Chemtrails! Obviously
/s
Its obviously a crack in the space-time continuum. The universe have been watching our elections and was disappointed on November 5. This is an obvious sign of the end times. Now drown in fear, you mortal being.
Normally, i would assume both theories are jokes
But considering that the comment used “/s” to indicate ths first theory being a joke, but not for the second one, does that mean that a crack in time is more likely than chemtrails?
You know those “The earth isn’t flat, its obviously a [Insert Shape Here]” jokes?
This is like that.
Now the joke is ruined.
🥲
You shall perish in the crack in space-time continuum.

I sent a link to my local TV meteorologist. Will update if I hear back.
My non-expert but I just read a book about clouds guess:
Those cirrus clouds are typically made of ice crystals. A plane disturbed them, leaving a contrail of water. Water refracts light differently than ice, seen more clearly at dusk.
That would make total sense given the time of day. I hadn’t thought about the different make up of a cloud due to altitude.
I’m not a meteorologist, but I do know a thing or two about plasma.
Plasma is very short lived. Think on the order of microseconds at atmospheric pressures. So unless there was a massive linear source of power along the whole length, this isn’t plasma.
The visual effects probably have to do with the fact that the sun was very low. I’m guessing the particle size distribution in that line is notably different from the size of particles in the clouds surrounding it, leading to much stronger reflection of evening light.
I am curious as to the meteoroligical explanation for the line though.
Makes sense about plasma being short lived. It was just so close to the color I imagine an aurora to be along with the glow. I mentioned in another comment but I’m gonna look at the flight paths near here at that time to see if something comes up.
All things serve the beam!
