His disturbed co-pilot obviously affected by alien abduction replied...

"No it wasn't. It was a rock lobster."

Nice find Knukles!

So...

 

It appears that NORAD and the fucking MILITARY don't even know WHEN THEY ARE FIRING THEIR OWN DAMN MISSILES! 

The fucking markets should sell off on the news that the military is so incompetent that they don't fucking talk to each other before they start shooting off ordinance, and can't even come up with an explanation to the press!  I'm surprised we didn't scramble a fighter wing and blow our own sub out of the water! Dipsy-doodle dip-dunk pus-nutted jerkoffs!

At least the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, the National Ocean Service and U.S. Coast Guard seem to have their shit together!  Congr-ass should turn CENTCOM over to them!

I think they pretty well know when they are firing their missiles.  They just aren't telling you.  The idea anybody could believe that NOBODY in our government knows of, saw, analyzed film footage, found sat. photos, gave the order to launch, etc...

The Government also says that it's "Recovery Summer".

That mission was declassified back in the 70s, but it wasn't until the 1990s that the USAF finally revealed that the Roswell UFO was a crashed Mogul balloon string. The "alien materials" found included the ultra-thin metalized material, aluminized mylar IIRC, used for the radar retro-reflectors along with the "alien hieroglyphics" which consisted of children's decorative patterns on the surplus masking tape used by the civilian manufacturer of the reflectors which was, IIRC, a toy company.

The USAF revelations should have put an end to the Roswell BS once and for all but, of course, it didn't. A retired USAF friend of mine said that there was a large model of a Mogul balloon string in the secure area of the nuclear treaty compliance building he worked in. Those who worked there knew what Roswell was really all about long before the rest of us did and always got a snicker out of it.

We all know that is not true.  I pray that your cruel statement will not achieve its intended result.

This submarine launched ICBM is a ransom note.  Plain as day.  The negotiations, like all ransoms, are being conducted in secrecy.

And the note says, "Unless you do X the book One Second After will come true."  Does the question of who the Blackmailer is really even matter?  Not really, unless it is the CIA flying another false flag. 

Do yourselves a favor and read this short bit.

I am not an expert, I am only speaking from the experience of seeing 10+ shuttle launches from my swamp, but, at 35 miles out you should have seen more smoke and a bright point of light. There was no light in the video I saw.

When the shuttle launches, it's like a giant effin falling star up close but going in the wrong direction, and there is NO QUESTION that it's a rocket going into space, no second guessing it. It is a great experience if you have never seen it.

I don't know the size difference between the shuttle and an ICMB, maybe 4x? but at only 35 miles it should have been obvious what it was. The shuttle launches over 100 - 150 miles from me and it's plain as day.

When they land the shuttle in Florida they re-enter above the swamp, my whole house shakes. It's really cool.

The shuttle weights more than a missile, has three sets of engines, and each booster engine probably gives off 5x the amount of flame as hydrogen/oxygen motors. So while the comparison is apt, it's not really that close.

If you google the original CBS footage, there actually is a flame visible at the top of the contrail.  Is it dull enough to just be a jet?  Maybe.  I dunno.

cougar_w's picture

Conventional jet engines (other than fighter jets on afterburners, or maybe the SR-71) don't display a visible flame front on boost. They are really just air pumps, and the flame tends to die before it hits atmosphere. At least I've never witnessed anything like a flame, and I live close enough to an airport to see a lot of night flights.

I had to be a rocket. Nothing else fits.

Meh. Orbital shots always shoot east. To take advantage of the earth's rotational kick. Launching west is into the sea. You do not launch east from the western US, as that places booster stage drop zones over US soil. To launch east you launch in Florida. Or the western pacific territories. Not from LA.

Elementary, my dear Watson.

The message is either "Oops" or else its "First time we launched a blank AWAY from LA..."

Can't think of another message that makes any sense. Surely not "This was just a test."

The mystery is why isn't the known flight made known if it is known? If the is merely a jet contrail local control must or probably knows what flight niumber it was.

Higher margin requirements effect paper not physical. Don't let it worry you it's just another fence for the big paper players to hurtle in the manipulation game.

Waaaaay too much time spent on this story. I could post dozens of photos of similar contrails but have no idea how to do that here.

Can we get back to the economy and markets now? Or how about the Dreamliner making an emergency landing? Maybe shot down by a missile?

the only pic that you can see the trail actually coming out of the jet has a caption that says it's most likely MILITARY.  

sorry dude, but you're not doing such a great job at making a convincing counter-argument here even when i'm handing you the opportunity on a silver platter.  maybe your heart's not in it?   oh well, change the subject i guess.   what's a little con-trail between friends anyhoo?

Guys, this one's a no-brainer.  It was a Chinese dry run.  They like to put to real-life practice their equipment and capabilities.  Additionally, they know that we know they did it, and this is their way of saying "Hi USA! Look at us! We can shoot DC if we want to!"  G-20 meeting this week, Obama cruising the Arabian Seas, Bernanke pumping out billions.  Perfect time for China to say "Hi-eee!" in their own special way.  The US is in no position to respond, so the gameplan is to ignore it,  to publicly pretend it didn't happen.

Ok, either that or it's aliens.  I'm 70-30 right now.

The Emperor is in the Philippines. The republicans just scored a major victory. The warning shot was a message sent to the Emperor.

Look at the trajectory. It all makes sense. A Nobel winner is not a real commander-in-chief. A pacifist.

I think the projectile emanated from a party yacht off the coast, upon which a celebrataing but gaseous Barney Frank, having just eaten a load of Mexican, blew a butt plug.

Hopefully, he'll be OK, because how could the nation get along without him.  He's been such a big help, a plus, a force for good over the decades.

All is well. Its only condensation trail from a jet. You can see the red/orange glint from the sun near sunset reflecting off the shiny plane. An ICBM has brilliant white flame from the rocket motor which can easily be seen during the day, and is quite spectacular at dusk, dawn and at night.

Also, the missles move very fast espcially once they get about 20,000 feet, by then the missle is moving at several thousand miles per hour and leaves the atmosphere (lower atmospher quickly) and is then out of sight.

To see the speed of a real lauch the what the re-entry looks like (and how fast the re-entry vehicles travel) watch the vid California to Kwajalein Minute Man Missle Launch available on Youtube.

The "Mystery Missle" could well become the touchstone for the average "stupid American" to join, become aware, and make ready the new and modern American revolution...which is to simply defund this defunct, incompetent, and corrupt Federal Government.

This one has some staying power, I think.  After trillions spent in national defense...NORAD says "No Clue."  I could not have said it better myself.

It is clear...we are moving to the end of things now....

That would be nice if true. I saw the video, looked like a rocket to me with a reaction trail crossing thermal layers and different wind sheers as it went up. If the video was recording it headed down field then the relative motion would be fore-shortened to the point where it would appear stationary. The flame might have been reflection, the time of day was right, but I'm not convinced.

NORAD is handling as if it were a launch at sea. I guess we'll know more later.

Looks like the jet is flying towards the helicopter, making the contrail appear to rise from the horizon. The contrail is fatter than would normally appear, but with the lighting and angle the dimenions can appear distorted.
