Do you think the missile launched by the California coast was ours or Chinese?

I think the Pentagon is just denying they launched it beause its new technology and they don't want people to know about it. But then again, why would they launch a new weapon that close to shore whee people would be able to see the missiles exhaust trail? Would another country be stupid enough to launch a rocket that close to our shore? If it was in our air space that would be considered an act of war, correct?

Either that's one cool microwave or a very bad place for the launch button.

I don't know. It's a bit of a mystery. It's most likely the Pentagon trying to hide their mistake.

I just read that, too, thanks. I'm not a conspiracy theory type person, but that could simply be explained if their was a flight in that area at that specific time. Why couldn't the Pentagon just check airline flight status to confirm that? Sounds fishy.

I heard that theory as well. It doesn't hold water. You can visibly see the object putting out the contrail, and it sure doesn't look like an airplane. Not to mention the fact that the contrail is just too big to be a jet. It doesn't match the contrail of any plane I've ever seen or heard of. It actually looks just like an ICBM.

There have been sightings and witnesses to sound in the same area that have said they've been seeing things like that for years. It's apparently that rumored Aurora plane (at least it's speculated to be) that can reach speeds of mach 7+...

I like that theory. The contrail looks right to be Aurora as well.

Nope...When initial testing of secret aircraft (like the SR-71) took place, it was at Area 51, which is restricted airspace.

Whenever the Pentagon conducts any sort of military operations near the U.S., such as air-to-air combat sorties or missile firing over national waters, then coordination must occur with federal and state agencies to avoid accidents.

For example, one job I had was controlling air-to-air fighter combat training in over water areas. These areas had FAA air traffic corridors in between them (for New York and Washington airports). We were in constant contact with FAA Enroute Centers to ensure their weren't any conflicts between aircraft.

It if it indeed a missile, US gov is just testing out new stuff. And seriouly, they will not tell you anything about it. Why should they?magicalclick

Having served, I agree that some secrecy must be maintained in the interest of national security.

However, it would be hard to keep it quiet...the military would have had to clear the intended flight path of all boats as well as aircraft.

The Coast Guard would have been out in force to keep the sealanes clear, and it looks as though they weren't, so this might not have been an American test.

There testing our responses and outcry. The American people have become so controlled, brainless, & grotesquely corpulent that the return of the mcnasty is making more headlines than the end to life as we know it. It was a test, and we failed miserably... The end is near.

It was probably a glitch in the system or, more likely, miscommunication between ranks that resulted in someone firing a missile when they weren't supposed to. Whatever happened, it looks like the missile got fired blindly and crashed somewhere in the ocean. Also, I can't believe how paranoid people are getting about China. Come on people, just because they're becoming a first world nation doesn't mean that they're going to try to topple the US. In case you guys haven't noticed, there are more first world countries out there than just America and history has shown that two superpowers can coexist even if they desperately want to see the other reduced to rubble (see: USSR and USA). It should be obvious to anyone willing to think about the situation for a minute that this wasn't some foreign power trying to intimidate the US by firing a missile off shore. Reason for that being that doing something like that is an act of war and would monumentally backfire on whoever did it.

It could be mistakes by DoD/Pentagon. Aren't there still some nukes that haven't been recovered from USAF air mishaps* during the Cold War? If they can mess those up, why not this one?

But, it did look like a missile plume off the CA coast.

*Or maybe those were USN mishaps.

An article on Fox News says that the images look very similar to ordinary images of fighter jets. The sun may have hit the jet the right way and it looked like a missile.

If it was a jet, they should be able to precisely pinpoint the position and time of that particular flight, but no one has said anyting or confirmed flights over that area. And the proximity of the object to the shore , as well as its speed (which you can see in the video) indicate that it was traveling extremely fast. Much to fast to be a commercial airline jet. So it's a missile or secret aircraft.

MathMattS

Yes, because this smoke trail that you can plainly see ascending from the ground in an enormous plume:

Looks just like the thin horizontal contrails you see from fighter jets:

Also notice how in the first picture the smoke plume is going vertically at first. Last I checked fight jets don't take off by shooting straight up into the air at a 90 degree angle.

Most probably was a jet contrail, as I saw on the news tonight, optical illusions like that are known to happen. But no, definitely China launching a missile that never connected with anything.
