Who just launched an ICBM 35 miles from SoCal coast?

  1. It was Google doing a fly by.. capturing IP addresses and passwords of our missile defense systems.

  2. No....they already have those. CIA heavly involved with GOOG on JV deals and heck GOOG is even on location in a NASA facility. :eek:

    Had a day flight yesterday. Got home late and missed the news. From what I'm reading here, there's still no word on the missile?

    This is really strange! In times of terror concerns, a missile that could 'possibly' have had a war head on it gets launched 35 miles from Los Angeles, and the news isn't freaking out turning over every rock to find where it came from? Hmmmm...

    I've seen the videos, and it's a missile.

    377OHMS

    I've learned a couple things on ET and on the internet in general.

    Shown some event, a room containing 10 people will more likely perceive 8 versions of the event with perhaps only 2-3 people agreeing than will an outcome occur with more agreement. Diversity of perception seems to dominate. That is counter-intuitive and interesting.

    Another observation is that, among people shown an event the version of that event offered by people with expertise relating to the event has no more weight than wildly speculative versions offered by others in that group. In fact, the more powerfully expressed ideas with skillful powerpoint charts and eloquent language will likely dominate however improbable or strange they are.

    I think this mechanism must relate to the conspiracy theory phenomena we observe in the 9/11 people.

    Fascinating. :D

  8. Is the story over yet???



    The Pentagon spin machine, backed by the media reporters who regularly cover the Defense Department, as well as officials of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), and the U.S. Northern Command, is now spinning various conspiracy theories, including describing the missile plume videotaped by KCBS news helicopter cameraman Gil Leyvas at around 5:00 pm Pacific Standard Time, during the height of evening rush hour, as the condensation trail from a jet aircraft. Other Pentagon-inspired cover stories are that the missile was actually an amateur rocket or an optical illusion.

    Missile experts, including those from Jane’s in London, say the plume was definitely from a missile, possibly launched from a submarine. WMR has learned that the missile was likely a JL-2 ICBM, which has a range of 7,000 miles, and was fired in a northwesterly direction over the Pacific and away from U.S. territory from a Jin class submarine. The Jin class can carry up to twelve such missiles.

    Navy sources have revealed that the missile may have impacted on Chinese territory and that the National Security Agency (NSA) likely posseses intercepts of Chinese telemtry signals during the missile firing and subsequent testing operations.

    Asian intelligence sources believe the submarine transited from its base on Hainan through South Pacific waters, where U.S. anti-submarine warfare detection capabilities are not as effective as they are in the northern and mid-Pacific, and then transited north to waters off of Los Angeles. The Pentagon, which has spent billions on ballistic missile defense systems, a pet project of former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, is clearly embarrassed over the Chinese show of strength.

    The White House also wants to donwplay the missile story before Presidnet Obama meets with his Chinese counterpart in Seoul and Tokyo. According to Japanese intelligence sources, Beijing has been angry over United States and allied naval exercises in the South China and Yellow Seas, in what China considers its sphere of influence, and the missile firing within the view of people in Southern California was a demonstration that China’s navy can also play in waters off the American coast.

    For the U.S. Navy, the Chinese show of force is a huge embarassment, especially for the Navy’s Pacific Command in Pearl Harbor, where Japan’s December 7, 1941 attack on the fleet at Pearl Harbor remains a sore subject.

  10. So what was it? Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer who tracks space launches at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, says it was probably an optical illusion caused by a plane.

    "If it's coming over the horizon, straight at you, then it rises quickly above the horizon," he told New Scientist. "You can't tell because it's so far away that it's getting closer to you – you'd think it was just going vertically up," he says.

    The fact that it occurred at twilight would have emphasised the contrail, he adds. "It's critical that it's at sunset – it's a low sun angle. It really illuminates the contrail and makes it look very dense and bright." See other jet contrails that look like missiles.

    "I would say that's the 90 per cent guess," he says. "There's still a 10 per cent chance in my mind that it is a missile contrail, but if so, what isn't clear to me is whether anyone but this helicopter saw it." Since no one in LA apparently reported seeing the missile, he says, that suggests either that it looked like a jet contrail from their perspective or that a relatively small rocket was responsible.

    MIT astronomer 90% sure its a jet contrail.
