Mystery Missile Launch Seen off Calif. Coast (video)

is there any definitive outcome on this? Are MSM backing off?
Was it a news chopper that recorded this?
 
That doesn't look anything like a normal con trail. That looks like hydrogen fuel being burned.
 
Editor of "Jane's Missiles and Rockets" Says its a missile....

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/11/10/earlyshow/main7040379.shtml

Doug Richardson, the editor of Jane’s Missiles and Rockets, examined the video for the Times of London and said he was left with little doubt.

"It’s a solid propellant missile," he told the Times. "You can tell from the efflux [smoke]."

Richardson said it could have been a ballistic missile launched from a submarine or an interceptor, the defensive anti-missile weapon used by Navy surface ships.

If it was a missle, it obviously didn't have a nuclear warhead. All I know is that I live about 100 miles away from L.A. and I am freaking out. I wanna know what that was. And I'm not buying that it was an airplane.
 
Well, I'm disappointed.

I've been on slow speed internet connections for the past couple of days, so I haven't seen any of the video... until now.

In the video clip listed at the start of this very thread, the news chopper cameraman is quoted as saying he filmed the object "for about ten minutes" (quote is at approximately the 0:47 time frame) until he lost sight of it.

Uh, okay.

If it had been ANY sort of missile, IT WOULD NOT HAVE REMAINED IN SIGHT FOR TEN MINUTES!!!!

Anyone who has ever watched a space shuttle launch will know that after less than two minutes, the shuttle is downrange and basically out of sight even for the great big badass telephoto cameras used to record the launch. An ICBM or anything similar is even faster than that.

Maybe it was a plane. Maybe it was Superman with a bad case of gas... I dunno.
But if it was filmed for ten minutes, it wasn't an ICBM.
 
KC wouldn't it depend on how far away it was? It was over the ocean. That could put it hundreds of miles away couldn't it?

Have you seen 10 minutes of footage?

Here is a space shuttle launch from over 20 miles away. Moves pretty "slow" doesn't it? Of course the blast from the space shuttle launch vehicle is much brighter because it is well - MUCH BIGGER than ... say a JL-1 medium range SLBM. However, it illustrates what a FAST moving missile or rocket looks like when launched from the ground and observed from many miles away.

Also, if it were launched to go directly out into space, I could see how 10 minutes would be a long time, but if it were launched to head west-east, well then.....

That's VERY disturbing because it implies one of the following:

1- The government is outright lying to us
2- Left hand doesn't know what right hand is doing (not a good thing when it comes to nuclear warheads and the vehicles that carry them)
3- It was a government other than the United States that launched it.


I'm not liking this :(

Neither am I! Some people still believe that flight 800 was taken down over LI in 1996 by a missile during some kind of Naval exercise in the area. I wonder if there was anything going on in the Pacific when this latest incident occurred.

Also, if it wasn't ours, wouldn't military jets have been scrambled from other nearby bases? Which would lead me to believe that the missile is ours and if there was some sort of mistake, I'm sure they will do everything in their power to cover it up.
