Mystery Light Seen In SoCal Sky Sparks Speculation; Pentagon Confirms It Was Missile Test

Residents posted a flurry of videos on social media, together with theories of aliens or meteors. Others made panicked calls to law enforcement officials.

But not to worry, U.S. military officials said. It's a pre-planned missile test.

The Navy Strategic Systems Programs held a scheduled missile test flight at sea from USS Kentucky, which is a ballistic missile submarine. The test was conducted off the coast of Southern California, the Pentagon said in a statement.

...

The Los Angeles International Airport issued a statement this week about the military testing.

"The military airspace to the west of LAX will be active for one week, creating traffic route limitations and requiring LAX to temporarily deviate from over-ocean operations," it said.

The military test will continue until November 12.

If they didn’t want anyone to see it they could
have launched it by Guam or some place mid Pacific.

NO!

They didn’t “launch on from Wyoming”!

That was stupid reporting.

That missile had be deployed in Wyoming.

It was “de-nuked” and moved to Vandenberg, AFB, CA for the Operational Test Flight, like they have for the last 50 years.

Obama is trying to use up all our defensive missiles. When they are all gone he will raise the white flag. Useless trash in D.C.

Not now.

My guess is that they wanted a way to track it and those facitilities are located in SoCal.

Since when did nucular-tipped, ballistic, Trident missiles start flying horizontal and have blue beams emanate from them and then leave a blue cloud behind?

It reminds me of the Russian ballistic missile test on 9DEC2009. It was RSM-56 Bulava missile that was also sea-launched and ended up causing a spiral anomaly.

Hoagland had a three-part series about this Russian missile test.

See these other articles for more pics and videos and see the similarities.

It wasn’t a Trident missile but maybe it was a missile interceptor ?
