Lights in the sky above LA

ATS at its best reflecting the range of intelligent contributions from all over, awesomeness unbound. Mucho grass for the detailed first-hand unpolluted perceptual record. Any subsequent determination of azimuth / elevation of those events? Thanks again.

How about the fact that it looks exactly like a missile launch?

We have people like you telling us it looks like a missile launch!

It might also be what a ship from another world would look like, prove me wrong!

Ok reading a few posts above and what you're saying, is they launched a missile over the ocean and shot it down? This was the test?

Do they do these test often?

and if yes, why is this one so surprising to people?

hmmmm

a reply to: game over man

They usually fire a short range missile and shoot it down with an SM-3 from a nearby Aegis.

Not often but a couple a year at least. They're usually off Hawaii but they've started testing in other areas lately.

Could someone please explain the blue trial/streak it left behind? And to have been seen as blue in the darkness also?

Ionization of the exhaust, by sunlight.
While the surface was in darkness, the rocket was high enough to be in sunlight. The same way a satellite reflects sunlight after dark.

What sunlight? it was dark when this happened right?

It isn't November 15th, is it?

There's sort of an ongoing NOTAM for that sort of stuff in the area. This came up with the contrail/missile event a few years back.

Yes, it is November 2015.

Read again what you quoted.

Update: U.S. Navy Trident missile test flight off coast of So. Cal. From USS Kentucky

Is there actual war footage of this? Or just the public footage from all over the world of these mass sightings?

I would think this would have been done numerous times in battle to protect a base.

Ok, so was this thing in our atmosphere or in outerspace?

For comparison here's a series of Russian missile tests recorded on social media, that I've been following closely -- www.jamesoberg.com...

It was obviously extremely high in altitude as it could be seen from as far as AZ and LV. However the projectile started relatively low in the sky.

If this is what i saw at 6pm pacific time directly to the south of my home then it was a rocket launch. i got to see the last 2 stages and it was heading due west out over the pacific. a strange direction to go for a rocket launch since it requires abit more velocity to reach orbit. also its exhaust plume had a whitish green glow to it. im wondering if this could coincide with the launches nasa did on the atlantic coast last month that released barium clouds for a study. in there description of that launch they said it could leave a plume glowing blueish green or purplish red. i took a picture but it looks like it couldnt pickup the glowing exhaust plume but imma try to give it a closer look once im done posting this and upload it to my computer. maybe someone who knows how to use some photo editing software can tweak it to bring out the plume.

the picture. its terrible

Interesting, are they expecting something?

Thank you -- link to details?

That's more consistent with the NOTAMS map, which described zones nowhere near Pt Mugu.

If you mean outside the atmosphere, it was in outer space.
