It's not a con trail, it's too dense, and doesn't look like one. Look at 1:54 in the link, this is not a reflection. I'll bet on a Trident launch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2qKMchcgzk -----Original Message----- From: seesat-l-bounces+paulgrace=lookoutranch.com@satobs.org [mailto:seesat-l-bounces+paulgrace=lookoutranch.com@satobs.org] On Behalf Of Skywise Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2010 09:42 To: SeeSat Subject: Re: Mystery launch off California coast k4hsm@knology.net wrote: > Mystery launch off California coast > Military Mum on Nature of "Big Missile" Rising Out of Pacific - a > Possible Show of U.S. Military Might This pops up every once in a while. Seen it myself. It's an airliner leaving a contrail that's being lit by the setting sun. It appears to be going straight up because it's coming straight towards the observer from over the horizon. If we had a time, direction, and location of the viewpoint it would not be difficult to determine which flight it was. The contrail more than likely also shows on satellite weather imagery. As many of us here know who have observed known missile launches, this thing is moving WAAAAAAAAY too slow.
