smoke

An atmospheric effect, where the particles produced rise and billow, in clearly defined clouds. Most of what are billed as fog machines are technically smoke machines.

There is no, safe, way to produce inherently colored smoke. A famous chemistry-class saying is "ALL colored gases are poisonous, many clear ones also." Use colored lights on your (white) smoke.

See also fog, haze.
