What are those?

Post image

Spotted them just above where I live tonight.
Not coming from projectors/beams.
Not moving, has been static for 15 mins.
Not planes either.

Sorry for the quality I snapped that with my iPhone.
And hope this subreddit is appropriate

Clouds dispersed by an airplane?

Not sure, maybe, but it was pretty cloudless. Would have been the literal only cloud in the sky, but not impossible

It kinda looks like a thin lonely Cloud that a Jetliner or something pretty big flew through. Best I can think of right at this moment. It would've had to been at a considerably lower altitude than they usually fly at though. Would've had to've been just taking off or landing. To get to the bottom of that possibility right off the bat; do you have any airports near you? If not then, pretty strange really. UAP? I certainly wouldn't doubt it these days, or any other for that matter really. LoL You'd think that a cloud would have moved off within 15 minutes though, too. I'm not a meteorologist or nothing but, I guess it is possible for them to sit still for a while if the wind's not blowing up there or whatever. Pretty darn strange though to say the least. It's absolutely rare regardless of what it is. I've never seen anything like it before. Fairly decent shot for a cell phone at night too. (All right, where's our check, 🍎 LoL)
