Re: Mystery missile
Brian Webb of Launch Alert says:
^Missile launches off of the southern California coast are not really that unusual. They have happened before from San Nicolas Island and from ships and submarines at sea.^
^As a matter of fact, the waters off of southern California contain an established range for testing and evaluating missiles, weapons systems, and so on.^
It is still unclear to me from news reports whether the military is deliberately playing dumb or actually has no idea what this was.
