I probably would’ve felt like concrete just formed in my gut if I was in CA and saw that. It didn’t have a mostly pencil tail which rules out a meteorite. It had a conical tail which implied something with thrust.
I actually felt scared when I found out it was an SLBM.
Well it wasn’t heading to LA, it was going down range southwesterly. Some who’d smoked a bong or weed thought it awesome, gays thought it fabulous.
