Artificial intelligence could be used to prevent planes from creating planet-warming condensation trails, or contrails, according to a new study. Exactly how much impact contrails have on global ...

Those white vapor trails crisscrossing the sky carry a hidden climate price tag comparable to the damage from jet fuel itself. Research from Chalmers University of Technology reveals that aviation ...

In one of the largest international studies of its kind, 4AIR, the aviation sustainability solution leader, has found that small altitude adjustments on business aviation flights could have a ...

Contrails are clouds made of ice particles, which can be created when airplanes fly through cold, humid air. Persistent contrails are estimated to have a warming climate impact. Flight tests will ...

IN THE SKIES OVER MONTANA ― It was a six hour flight that officially didn't go anywhere, but could help usher in a new chapter of aviation sustainability. A high altitude series of science experiments ...

Contrails form when soot and water vapor emissions from jets mix with humid, cold air. Photo Credit: TinaSova20/Shutterstock A cross-section of airlines, academic institutions and technology partners ...

Aviation's climate impact is partly due to contrails—condensation that a plane streaks across the sky when it flies through icy and humid layers of the atmosphere. Contrails trap heat that radiates ...

Online military forums like SecretProjects went wild last year over a grainy, indistinct image of an aircraft. Basic digital enhancement showed a bat-winged craft unlike any known U.S. military plane, ...

Airlines might be able to substantially reduce their impact on climate change simply by altering some flight paths, a recently completed study on contrail avoidance has found. Photo Credit: TinaSova20 ...

Contrails conjure a sense of something overwhelming and ineffable, as terrifying as it is beautiful. By Kate Folk I spend most days working from home, in my apartment in San Francisco’s Richmond ...
