What causes the contrail of a jet airplane?

The heat of the compressed air from the aircraft engine via the engine's exhaust heats the water vapor in the air (air is cooler in the atmosphere) making condensation in the form of a cloud, for the cloud info type in:

How do clouds form?

If you just need info on the contrails just add on how clouds form onto the contrail.

Hope that helps.
