Why is that a surprise. No noats or aircraft were iin the immediate vicinity of the launch, they were warned away by a surface and air NOTAM. .You can see it on several of the other threads.

I don’t even get into this with the “it was a missile” cult any more. I’m with you on this too. If this had actually been a missile, forget all the similarities with other flight 808 contrails and other evidence against it. One can just focus on all the other eyewitness accounts from people that were a LOT closer to the “launch” than the helicopter camera man.
They must all be being held in a secret government bunker under the ocean somewhere. ;)
