"Mystery" Ballistic Missile Test Lights Up Sky Over California, Leads To Social Media Panic
Late on Friday there was a surprising announcement by the Federal Aviation Administration according to which night-time flights to and from Los Angeles International (LAX) would avoid flying over the Pacific Ocean to the west of the airport, the second busiest in the US. There was no specific reason given except to note that "mysterious maneuvers" by the US military over the Pacific are forcing a change in landings late at night.
Instead of landing from the east over Inglewood, planes would begin flying from the west and over the ocean to keep noise levels down, but due to secret military operations, the airspace over the Pacific is closed to incoming flights for the next week.
"We clearly understand that neighbors and communities east of the airport will experience noise and we apologize for that," said Nancy Castles, LAX public relations director.
As ABC reported, the military would not say what is causing the change, and LAX claims it's also in the dark. Castles said all they know is planes can't be flying at low altitudes to our west.
What's going on this week is a mystery. "And plus if it's a military thing it's a good thing, that means they're making it safer for us so I wouldn't let it bother me," said Steve Devosion of Inglewood. "I'd be more interested in them not doing something about what's going on than them doing something about what's going on."
Then the reason behind the "secret operation" became quite literally apparent around 6pm local time when thousands of reports from Los Angeles and San Diego flooded social networks with reports of a mysterious bright light in the sky that sent Californians into panic. The San Diego Union-Tribune said police were inundated with calls "reporting everything from a flare to a comet to a nuclear bomb".
The newspaper said the light was seen as far away as the states of Nevada and Arizona. CBS-LA reported sightings in San Francisco, 380 miles (600km ) to the north.
California coast. DID. ANYONE. ELSE. JUST. SEE. THAT. #ufo

The light was spotted traveling quickly over Orange County and neighbouring areas late on Saturday, leading to fevered speculation online over its origin.
Videos posted online show a bright flare rising high, before a wide, bright blue flash emerges in a cone shape. Many videos continued to track the light for several minutes. Some people saw it fade from bright red to white or blue, and thought it traveled from south to north.
Shortly thereafter the official story was released: according to the Union Tribune, Navy Strategic Systems Programs conducted the scheduled Trident II (D5) missile test flight at sea from the Kentucky, an Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine, in the Pacific Test Range off the coast of Southern California, a Navy spokesman said.
The test was part of a scheduled, on-going system evaluation test, said Cmdr. Ryan Perry with the Navy’s Third Fleet.
Perry said launches are conducted on a frequent, recurring basis to ensure the continued reliability of the system. “Each test activity provides valuable information about our systems, thus contributing to assurance in our capabilities,” he said in a statement.
The missile was not armed and Strategic Systems Programs does not routinely announce missile testing. Information regarding the test launch of such missiles is classified prior to the launch, Perry said.
The test range is a massive area northwest of Los Angeles. The Navy periodically uses the range to test fire Tomahawk and Standard cruise from surface ships and submarines.
According to reports, the launch area was the Pacific Missile Test Center located next to Point Mugu, "targeting" the Kwajalein atoll in the Marshall Islands.
Since LAX traffic has been diverted until Thursday night, it is likely that the US Navy will conduct more such tests. What is unclear is why the test, which was clearly meant to be apparent to millions of people, was conducted so publicly and in such close proximity to some of the most populated US urban centers, when traditionally the military is far more secretive when conducting ballistic missile tests.
Perhaps this was merely the US response to the various Russian ICBM tests which was likewise conducted in secrecy in early 2014 and which moved markets. If so, expect the Kremlin to "retaliate" in kind with its own ICBM tests over the coming weeks.

It's the khazar kingpins fleeing as the goyem donkeys are waking up.
"And plus if it's a military thing it's a good thing, that means they're making it safer for us so I wouldn't let it bother me"
So weird how reporters always manage to "find" a person who worships the military for these reports...
Oz likes to show off his whiz band techno war machine over domestic population centers to intimidate the home audience.
Overseas, on the ground, Oz repeatedly gets his ass kicked by illiterate 14-year-old Pashtun goat herders, wearing flip flops in winter, armed with 100-year-old Mosins.
Those goat herders are not fooled: Oz is a wretched, godless little creep who is insanely greedy.....
It was just an airliner, I don't know what all the fuss is about.
Just like this event from 2010:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1328155/Pentagon-says-mystery-mi...
The fact that nuclear war, and not only that but a first strike doctrine as well, is being openly discussed as a 'viable option' is so completely insane that either they are using it as an intimidation technique or they have gone completely mad and no longer care what anybody thinks. To be so totally bold (and bold isn't even a word that comes close to describing it) says to me that the puppet masters believe (once again) that they now have total control. If Russia or China or India or Pakistan were 'discussing' a first strike nuclear attack they woud be condemmned the world round. I guess the puppet masters believe they can survive it and form an ongoing culture (under their total control of course) with the remnants.
Do people like this really exist in America? No wonder your country is fucked.
Ha ha: Steve Devosion (that's Devotion with an 'S'), the 'man on the street'. OF COURSE he exists, dear reader....
Yes, they exist. And its not a wonder our country is fucked, our country is fucked with those folks.
Europe is far worse.
this much i think is true, the missile was launched from a point north of LA and traveled south to somewhere around san diego where it turned north again. i went outside after the event with no idea of what had happened and saw a huge light area in the sky to the west, no trail just a cloudlike apparition. there were no clouds in the sky but there was a slight marine layer along the coast. the light area seemed very close to where i live, and i deduced at the time that it was lights from the hs football field reflecting off the marine layer, but they play on friday night. so i might guess that the missile was out of control, south and then north along populated areas, and that it may have actually broken up over land, though it may have been an optical illusion which made it seem to be near to where i was. if you ask me at the time i would have said five miles away and i live ten miles from the coast. did people actually at the coast witness the event out over the ocean? because most of the reports were from inland, places like Ramona, which is well inland. if they had control of the thing what the hell are they doing? and if they dont god save us all
OMG! I would have started shooting up the neighborhood seeing a missile launch.
"This is it, BITCEZ"
Your psychopath "protectors" at work.
Enjoy
looks like a big spot light
Much like lemmings, social media isn't hard to panic!
Relax... it was just Kim-Jong-Obonzo wanting attention... again.
Retards it's just swamp gas...
How would Obamacare stand up to nuclear winter?
Best coverage in town man.
6000 rads deductable.
Good grief, this happens all the time. I've seen 10+ of these things from the Bay area over the years, eventhough most of them get launched from Vandenberg 200+ miles away. THEY ARE MISSLE TEST LAUNCHES. They look wierd because the exhaust gases spread out in the vacuum of space. At 6:00 pm they may even be high enough to be illuminated by the sun which has just set.
Oh, i see the regular "too stupid" russian haters comments.
Want to brag about your nuclear stockpile penis?
Let's go then.
- - -
This the ONLY COUNTRY SUBMARINE (DELTA class) that is EVER TO TEST LAUNCH, ALL 16 (that's SIXTEEN) SLBM in ONE GO!!
Not even YU-ASS (with HIGHER GDP) done this. Isn't this what you brag about, hey stupid??
https://youtu.be/C9jBbQxmoFQ
Show me YOUR TOTAL ARSENAL OF SLBM TEST IN ONE GO to me then.
If you want to know HOW TOTAL NUCLEAR EXCHANGE, between Russia & YU-ASS looks like? Watch that video.
Oh btw? ALL 16 ICBM HITS THEIR TARGET DESTINATIONS AT KURA TEST RANGE!!
Have YU-ASS (with higher GDP) as per Russian haters comment done this?? SHOW ME.
- - -
On 30 October, 2015. Russian Strategic forces, conducts REGULAR YEARLY EVENT (mind you, YEARLY, not just one time event) Of testing THE WHOLE GOD DAMN NUCLEAR CHAINS COMMANDS, by executing launch of test missiles, FOR WHOLE DAMN ASSETS OF RUSSIAN MISSILES!! BE IT ON SUBMARINES, MOBILE GROUND'S, SILO BASED, OR AIR BOMBER ASSETS!!
http://russianforces.org/blog/2015/10/russia_tests_command_and_contr.shtml
If you want to know, what a launch commands DO, in a FULL NUCLEAR EXCHANGE between Russia & YU-ASS? Watch that video..
Now, SHOW ME, the test, of A FULL READYNESS TEST of YU-ASS strategic nuclear force, by LAUNCHING, EVERY NUCLEAR ASSETS that the YU-ASS has. got any video to proof?
WHY a country with the HIGHER GDP NUMBERS, never test such a readyness test?? (Beside that 2 (two) salvo firings of minuteman missiles, from silo based at CA base.)
- - -
Last thing. This is the nuclear arsenals list by country.
http://ploughshares.org/world-nuclear-stockpile-report
WHY the nuclear stockpile of the YU-ASS are LESS THAN, the RUSSIAN stockpile, given that YU-ASS, have a higher GDP numbers??
Still wants to wiggle, your TINY NUKE PENIS, in front of me??
- - -
Well shitheads? Aren't you the one, that said how great your (DEBT RIDDEN) GDP numbers in front of me? which btw, makes A LESS (TINY) NUCLEAR PENIS than Russia??
Still wants to brag, in front of me?? Really wants to go full nuclear war with the BEAR??
It does not matter if Russia has 100 times as much in the nuclear arsenal then the US.
Nor does it matter if US has 100 times as much as Russia.
Both nations have enough nukes to destroy each other many times over.
You my friend sound very angry. Perhaps you have very good reason to be angry, but I hope that people that control the nuclear weapons on both sides are lot more level header about these issues,
I am convinced this Norway Spiral thing is the exact same thing as this event in CA... maybe a malfunction. You can clearly see the blue trailing inside even. According to Russia it was theirs and a failed launch... pretty weird.
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=norway+spiral&ia=videos&iai=iIg5eczY5Ms
Wikipedia:
"On 10 December 2009, the Russian Ministry of Defence confirmed that a Bulava missile test had failed. According to a spokesman, "The missile's first two stages worked as normal, but there was a technical malfunction at the next, third, stage of the trajectory."[9] Russian defence analyst Pavel Felgenhauer stated to AFP that "such lights and clouds appear from time to time when a missile fails in the upper layers of the atmosphere and have been reported before ... At least this failed test made some nice fireworks for the Norwegians."[12] Prior to the Russian statement, Jonathan McDowel, an astrophysicist at the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, had already suggested that the unusual light display occurred when the missile's third stage nozzle was damaged, causing the exhaust to come out sideways and sending the missile into a spin."[7]
@ Ms No: I was reminded about the Norway Spiral too, but there were more than one spiral. I remember another video around the same time, but I cannot find it on Youtube now. It was from South America or Thailand/Malaysia, I think. I found a few other ones. Somehow, I doubt they were Russian and American Missiles all of them.

Thanks, that one in China is a dead ringer for this one too. If not a missle maybe it's a type of counter measure test. I was looking for that one in China but couldn't remember where it was, it was well covered on MSM when it happened.
I have seen some of that stuff you posted including the triangles. I saw the triagles first in Washington state (ironically near the "POW training camp" north of Elk Washington where those psychologists/scientists from Spokane tested and perfected torture methods, which has been discussed on the Hedge). Whatever they are they are effing weird and of course thousands in Pheonix have seen them at some point including air traffic and police in half a dozen counties. I don't think their alien as many do, I think they are something else, probably not what they appear to be.

"The Government is going to make it safer for me!"
The Article below this one says a fight with the "Russians" will end up being our ass whooping. I'm pretty sure the government getting ready to start a ww3 isn't going to be making it "Safer" for you and especially the tension rising is happening behind the backs of the American People. The whole mid east is a proxy war with the Russians.
listen you "californians" seems that the missle launching is happening close to you guys... the russians are going to be bombing the F$#$ out of your area....
OT and (maybe) not related but this just out from Reuters-
Investigators of the Russian plane crash in Egypt are "90 percent sure" the noise heard in the final second of a cockpit recording was an explosion caused by a bomb, a member of the investigation team told Reuters on Sunday.
The Airbus (AIR.PA) A321 crashed 23 minutes after taking off from the Sharm al-Sheikh tourist resort eight days ago, killing all 224 passengers and crew. Islamic State militants fighting Egyptian security forces in Sinai said they brought it down.
"The indications and analysis so far of the sound on the black box indicate it was a bomb," said the Egyptian investigation team member, who asked not to be named due to sensitivities. "We are 90 percent sure it was a bomb."
His comments reflect a higher degree of certainty about the cause of the crash than the investigation committee has so far declared in public.
Lead investigator Ayman al-Muqaddam announced on Saturday that the plane appeared to have broken up in mid-air while it was being flown on auto-pilot, and that a noise had been heard in the last second of the cockpit recording. But he said it was too soon to draw conclusions about why the plane crashed.
Confirmation that militants brought down the airliner could have a devastating impact on Egypt's lucrative tourist industry, which has suffered from years of political turmoil and was hit last week when Russia, Turkey and several European countries suspended flights to Sharm al-Sheikh and other destinations.
It could also mark a new strategy by the hardline Islamic State group which holds large parts of Syria and Iraq.
Asked to explain the remaining 10 percent margin of doubt, the investigator declined to elaborate, but Muqaddam cited other possibilities on Saturday including a fuel explosion, metal fatigue in the plane or lithium batteries overheating.
He said debris was scattered over a 13-km (8-mile) area "which is consistent with an in-flight break-up"-
so now we know it was a bomb... now the question is who was behind this and more importantly who was behind them and why?
and how much do the Russians already know? is Riyadh about to be erased from the face of the earth? one thing is certain a boy band with a buck knife did not pull this one off without some help. this sort of thing always stinks of state run black ops.
stay tuned.
Riyadh? Mecca first, then Medina. Then Tel-aviv. After that then maybe Riyadh.
Oh c'mon guys, believe the government that the timing of these tests is just coincidental with the surge in WWIII rhetoric worldwide. Now go back to sleep and don't forget to count your sheep. BTW, when the armed ICBM shoots over SoCa, just keep thinking it's a UFO and go about your business. You'll never realize you were wrong as you are being vaporized 15 seconds later.
Dude, if they start M.A.D., I don't want to survive it, I don't want to see it coming, and I want to be dead before I hit the ground.
I am by no means any kind of expert on missiles, but this appears to be a very bright white light. And I dont know about every one of you that frequent this site, but Im not buying anything that is stated by the military or the government......period.
Probably Made in China.
Divine butt gas ...
(yep)
It is a gigantic arrow pointing at something. But what?
The Trident missile system is one nasty son of a b**** folks head to Idaho
...and of course MOAR non-boots on the ground in Syria-
Just days after the White House announced that President Obama had authorized the deployment of a small contingent of special operations forces to the war-torn country of Syria, Secretary of Defense Ash Carter said more American troops could "absolutely" be sent into the country if the United States can find more "capable" local forces to partner with in the fight against ISIS.
"If we find additional groups that are willing to fight ISIL and are capable and motivated, we'll do more. The president has indicated a willingness to do more, I certainly am prepared to recommend he do more, but you need to have capable local forces; that's the key to sustainable victory," Carter told ABC News’ Bob Woodruff this week during an interview aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt in the South China Sea.
all that's left now if for the nukes to start flying.
>>>> The president has indicated a willingness to do more...<<<<
How about he does less. Much less. Nothing would be preferred.
Fucking warmongering hypocrite.
I'm unclear on the geometry here, I missed it but I had friends emailing me about it by 8PM last night about the meteor, then found a youtube clip, and first claims that it was a missile. Some story, then why were these grey-skinned, big-headed clones yabbering in the street in no known language and throwing candy to everyone, before transporting back to their mothership?
It doesn't need much the scare the shit out of a American momo. Even during halloween where they expect to be scared!
I wonder how many "aliens" and "4th dimension" movies there will be on youtube in a few hours from now....
But think about something else! When hyperinflation kicks in, imagine how social made will cause the mania te become even bigger!
People scare each other because it's cool and when hyperinflation kicks in, a few people can make it even worse!
That's why I think there will be a option when shit hits the fan that social media channels will be blacked out.
Everyone, SETTLE DOWN. Just because O'Boingo likes to caress 'the football' while he plays *honk on Bobo* with Reggie, is NO REASON to panic...
There is a interesting interview in the Guardian with Ash Carter
http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/nov/08/russia-is-putting-world-p...
“We’re investing in the technologies that are most relevant to Russia’s provocations, such as new unmanned systems, a new long-range bomber, and innovation in technologies like the electromagnetic railgun, lasers and new systems for electronic warfare, space and cyberspace, including a few surprising ones I really can’t describe here,”.
Hahahah russia is threatening world peace ? Rest carter is bluffing firstly lasers are only useful in shorter ranges nothing else and Railguns are still an experiment nothing else. Ive been following US dedense and have yet to see what projekts he cant talk about because there arent much in picture. Rest LRS will take a lot of time and will be costlier than F-22.
Terrorist ameriKan weaponry is only for satanic hollyweird, does it work ? not so much, it's a world joke.
Much different from other nuke films, but a classic:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sacrifice
Hey kaboomecoixiot- why should the US give away sensitive procedural and technical data when are the only ones who have ever used LIVE NUKES IN WARFARE?
Where does it says that the people who have made and used the damn things have to capitulate to losers who constantly lose crew and equipment to submarine and launch failures?
YOU ASS!!!
For the record I tried.
Just desperate CRIMINALS, flexing...And, Russia, won't give in.
economies, in tatter and falling fast...what to do
sounds like an epic night for those who were high.
If it came from a Russian sub (highly suspect), that would be a Russian 'shot across the bow', :) As you like to call it, but don't dispair, Obummer will draw a pink pussy line soon enough.
Fuck SAFER! What a sissy, dependant, whimp. These people make me want to vomit. Don't RELY on anyone other than yourself to make you "feel" safe - EVER...
And NO, "they" aren't making anything safer for you because they loathe you. They are simply doing what they believe is in their best, self interest.
We must not allow a UFO gap!
In other words, the U.S. WANTED the WHOLE WORLD to know that they were testing Tridents. Which is very definitely saber-rattling. It translates roughly as: "Russia, China, you've been pests lately. You seem to have forgotten that WE OWN THE WORLD. So even though any attempt to fight an old-fashioned battle with either of you would end up destroying our economy as well as our Army, please remember that we can reduce every major city in both your countries to radioactive glass any time we want to."
Pitiful. Such blatant statements are only needed when an aging superpower's status is in significant doubt.
Problem is that they can do the same .
They need to stop. If they do not this will not end well.
It is just my opinion but I think Putin is the type of guy that will bend and put up with crap up to a point. When you push him beyond that point you are fucked. He shuts down his emotions and becomes completely cold and calculating. However he is not a psychopath so he does not have their weaknesses. There is no overblown ego that will not let him assesses a situation accurately.
I also think that he has been pushed beyond that point.
It's being reported elsewhere as a 'hyper dimensional opening', similar to the one over Norway some years ago:
http://yournewswire.com/russia-missile-test-over-california-opens-hyper-...
If you scroll down that site, you'll see amazing, beautiful pictures of the event over Norway, although the purpose of this new military technology remains unclear. The CERN agency in Switzerland admit this is an ongoing project. It will be interesting to see if there is any confirmation that California was the lastest test site.
Also, a resident in California got some excellent video of the event, uploaded on that site, if you want a closer look at it. Just have to ignore their squealing at the beginning and end of the tape.
Ref: hyper dimensional event over Norway. In November 2009 CERN’s Director for Research and Scientific, Sergio Bertolucci said: “Out of this door might come something, or we might send something through it.”
It was Ahmed on his flying carpet
