No contrail. What we saw was a forked shape, like a V, coming off the rear of whatever it was (I'll say vehicle, because I've seen meteors and comets and it wasn't like either), and it stayed consistent with the forward motion of the vehicle, never lingering, never burning out, no contrail. Husband says it looked to him like a reentry burn. He's pretty well-informed on jets and aeronautics.

Yes. I am also a master prestidigitator. POOF! I am now wearing your hat.

I was outside with the dog about that time and hear a rumbling like an F-4 (very noisy flying brick) off in the distance It sounded intermitent on and off.

I'm not surprised ... news, even radio news, won't cover it unless it's a really screwy contrail from VAFB, then just to answer questions when they know for sure the answer. Otherwise .. it's relegated to kooksville, and probably rightly so most of the time. Even now, entirely possible that this is a covert thing that we spotted. The reason I posted was to see if I could be quick enough to get others to see it. Too late now.

FWIW, more or less north of you are both Edwards AFB, and Area 51/Dreamland.
Maybe, just maybe you saw an Aurora?

I noticed that too. I've never seen a poster respond to himself before apparently completely unaware that the first post was from him as well. I saw it too but was too lazy to scroll back to make sure it was the same person.
With two confirmations I don't have to now.

Could be. Thanks for the observation! Will suggest it to husband -- dry air at very high altitudes eliminates lingering contrails. In that case, it would have stayed at very high altitude throughout, across horizon in our vista.

Those are Eddie Bauer drawstring shorts - oh - and Jockey boxers since everyone seems to want to know the answer to that question. ;-)
