Default Rocket Launch ?

Pilots,

did anyone see the rocket or missile that was launched from Vandenburg AFB in Ca. tonight a few hours ago ? It looked really cool-esp. when the second stage lit off...........left a multi colored trail that lasted for over 2 hours.

Default Missile launch

Hello Jack,

Can't say I saw it down here in LA, but I remember the first missile defense test while we were still in CA. They are very spectacular when you see them on a clear night. Hope they scored a hit...Happy hunting USAF...
