Didn't see anything in Vegas. Delta is probably a little small for that and it was a little to late after sunset to see anything.

I alerted my son about this. He and my daughter in law were attending a friend’s birthday party on the 25th floor of the Icon building in downtown San Diego.

They and many of the guests got to see and enjoy this rare sight, as a result.

He told me that at first it looked like three distant jets in very tight formation, then the jets went out, and were quickly replaced by a single long flame.

Then it got fast. ;-)

Thanks, Ash, for alerting us to this particular “Boom Stick”!

It was a real dud here from the central San Joaquin Valley. There was no contrail whatsoever, just the light of the flame, which appeared as an airplane might. We’re already north of the launch, and the launch was basically due south, so people in LA or San Diego would have had a much better view.

Did anyone observe noctilucent clouds from it? I saw nothing.
