All the feather to tease you with

Today on a shuttle tour, I spotted this in the sky and pointed it out to the driver.

He stopped, everyone got out, and we all started taking pictures.

Even the driver said he'd never seen anything quite like it before.

Just one giant feather floating over the desert mountains.

Really cool

According to Gemini:

What it is: This formation appears to be a type of cirrus cloud, which is made of tiny ice crystals high up in the atmosphere.

How it forms: Strong high-altitude winds can stretch and shape these ice crystals into delicate, curved, feather-like strands (sometimes called cirrus uncinus or "mares' tails").

Contrail connection: Occasionally, spreading condensation trails (contrails) from airplanes catch these high-altitude winds and slowly morph into similar feathery shapes over time.
@mindless very cool!

@Bexsy pay attention then. They’re very subtle about it.
