US Navy say "light in the West Coast sky" was a Trident II (D5) missile test at sea from the submarine "Kentucky"

Chances are it was a Trident II D-5 with the warhead bus removed. Essentially a $40 million Roman candle with an 8000+ mile range.
I wonder if he was trying to impress “us?”
Because the other guys know what we have.
Not true. Obama has to vacate the office he usurped, and he has to leave on or before January 20, 2017, no matter what, one way or the other.
saw it while driving from Pasadena to Eagle Rock and also saw three helicopters flying in a V formation close to the 210 freeway .. going west, and then returning a half hour later going east.. scary!
Yes, that bat eared, tenderloin-homo,dufus-Alinskyite we have in the White Hut won’t commit to ground forces against ISIS because ISIS is a Saudi funded movement.
Obama won’t OK the Keystone pipeline because he is doing the Saudis bidding, who do not want developed petroleum infrastructure within the USA to compete against OPEC.
And now Obama is threatening nuclear warfare to get the Russians out of Syria, so the Saudi sponsored ISIS can take over Syria?
Obama does nothing but the step and fetch for the Saudis. Obama is the Saudis house ni**er.He will have us in WWIII before you know it.
May we soon be relieved from the Obama curse upon us of the Democrat Party and the scourge of America which is Obama.It won’t come soon enough.

“Clearly NOT a meteor, don’t know why anyone would even remotely think that. Ignorance I suppose.
“Nor was there an ‘explosion’.
“At first all you can see is the glow from the rocket motor, then a sudden brightening as the night time launched missile climbs high enough to still be in daylight. Then a very sudden brightening (your explosion) as the missile stages.”
I love the sound of 0bama voters freaking out in the middle of the night.
Vandenberg launch? Back in the 60s watched rockets launched from there, visible for miles.
That’s why the FAA diverted night air traffic this past week, because of the sub.
Military maneuvers are only scary when the top command is not trustworthy but have faith in the boots. I have always felt safer when the military were flying overhead, from A-10s, Marine Stallion helos and Osprey, the B-2 stealth bomber, and my favorite, the jets flying into McGuire/Dix that may be bringing home our boots. I’ve moved around and loved living near a large base. Air Shows!
Yep. Scenes from that movie kept me in a paranoid funk for weeks. Growing up in the 1960s had a few dark moments.
I was in high school at the time and too remember all of that.I thought that the missile shot scenes in “The Day After” were really cool, but the rest of it was nothing more than a big bash on Reagan and Thatcher. “Threads” was even more obnoxious.
And the “Ozone Hole” hysteria (people seem to have forgotten that) was just as big a scam as “Climate Chnage” today.
Sounds like a typical North Korean style chest thumping move.
BO’s agenda is unpopular, his foreign policy is weaker than anything this nation has seen in her history, and the focus in now on REPLACING him.
So what does he do? What the NORK regime would do. Fire off a missile in the sight of the populace to remind everyone “I’m a man.”
Doesn’t work for the Asian dictator, won’t work for BO.
Classic agitprop punchline.
Testing it for Iran.
That is exactly why I AM scared..
There are places in Colorado that are a long way above sea level.
It is 831 miles from Denver to LA.
From a 14,000 mountaintop, the horizon is 143 miles away.
If the missile explosion was at 313,000 feet (edge of space) and you were standing on top of a 14,000 foot high mountain near Denver, then the explosion would be just at the horizon.
