Maj. Michelle Curran, United States Air Force Air Demonstration Squadron "Thunderbirds" Lead Solo pilot, creates a blast of vapor clouds over Ocean City, Maryland, Aug. 14, 2020. When flying in humid environments, vapor clouds form when the aircraft causes the water in the air to compress and evaporate into liquid droplets. This most commonly happens when performing high-g maneuvers. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Andrew D. Sarver)
