"missile" people: You keep diverting, ignoring, distracting from these very important questions. Questions that destroy the "missile" theory completely:

>Radar. WHY nothing alerted either by ATC, nor NORAD? NORAD can track objects (unclassified size) down to as small as two cm, as high as LEO (low earth orbit).

>WHY do the plenty of similar examples shown, that have the same optical illusion (where it appears an airplane contrail is shooting "up" from the ground) not indicate that the event on Monday was just the same?

Why do people who have little to NO experience in matters involving aviation and flying think that they can make this assertions, based only on the flimsy "evidence" from this one cameraman's video, and the resulting (and probably intentional, by editors in the studio) hype?

Onlyfour....FIVE now.... there, and not yet has a credible answer been offered, by the "missile" enthusiasts.

I and many others are with you.
I am going to excuse myself from my own thread because this is a Merry-Go-Round with dis informants (and/or complete inept brainwashed people) at the switch.
I know it was a missile.
You know it was a missile.

I served in the US Navy for 21 years. I bet my life on it that it was a missile launch. It came from out at sea and most likely was launched from a submarine. Seriously, how stupid can anyone be to believe that it was a plane or an amateur rocket. It amazes me how they insult the intelligence of the general public by saying they have no idea what it is yet it amazes me even more at how stupid the American people are to believe their story.

I think it was China showing off...they can come to our shores unseen, and fire a missile off undetected, and get away clean. That, in itself, sends a strong message.
They got my attention.
The Pentagon spin machine, backed by the media reporters who regularly cover the Defense Department, as well as officials of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), and the U.S. Northern Command, is now spinning various conspiracy theories, including describing the missile plume videotaped by KCBS news helicopter cameraman Gil Leyvas at around 5:00 pm Pacific Standard Time, during the height of evening rush hour, as the condensation trail from a jet aircraft. Other Pentagon-inspired cover stories are that the missile was actually an amateur rocket or an optical illusion.
