Mystery Missile Launch Seen off Calif. Coast

[YosemiteSam]

(CBS) A mysterious missile launch off the southern California coast was caught by CBS affiliate KCBS's cameras Monday night, and officials are staying tight-lipped over the nature of the projectile.

CBS station KFMB put in calls to the Navy and Air Force Monday night about the striking launch off the coast of Los Angeles, which was easily visible from the coast, but the military has said nothing about the launch.

KFMB showed video of the apparent missile to former U.S. Ambassador to NATO Robert Ellsworth, who is also a former Deputy Secretary of Defense, to get his thoughts.

Were talking about this a while ago. Pretty sure it was not US military launch; that leaves one not too bad possibility, one ok somewhat possiblity and some not good at all possibilities.

Contractor screwing around launched one. But if it was done at sea that is not likely at all.

Screwball Poly tech crazies or such with very large prank.

Somebody fired this as a test. Someone more than likely not friendly.

Whoa if that was a prank that was one expensive one, not sure how it would be concluded to a punchline either.

As a matter of fact...

In truth, I have no idea what it is.

Sure it was. A rocket fueled wingless jetliner that practices impact landings...
