A childhood belief about aeroplanes

When I was little, I use to think that the airliners really high in the sky were spaceships. I always wondered why the spaceships left trails of smoke behind them, especially because I was told smoke couldn't exist in space. Then one day my dad let me use his binoculars. I wanted to see what these spaceships looked like, but when I focused in on one, I was shocked to see that it was a regular old plane.
