What in the hell is going on here?

"It's spectacular… It takes people's breath away," said Ellsworth, calling the projectile, "a big missile".

Magnificent images were captured by the KCBS news helicopter in L.A. around sunset Monday evening. The location of the missile was about 35 miles out to sea, west of L.A. and north of Catalina Island.

A Navy spokesperson told KFMB it wasn't their missile. He said there was no Navy activity reported in the area Monday evening.

On Friday night, Vandenberg Air Force Base, in California, launched a Delta II rocket, carrying an Italian satellite into orbit, but a sergeant at the base told KFMB there had been no launches since then.

It's pretty funny. In the Air Force we typically send the liberal arts/non tech/leadership lacking officers into the space and missile field. I'm pretty sure it was one of my old buddies pulling a prank.

John Titor! John Titor has returned! He has managed to launch a missile off the coast of California using that stupid IBM 5100 computer.

^His "Time Machine". I wonder what's really in it?

Why John Titor?

More than likely.....its nothing to be worried about.

Something we have and did and no one else is supposed to know about.

Sorry to be cryptic. But just remember a few years ago when we had to tell the world we had a working missile defense system. Yeah, probably the same thing will happen soon, we will have to admit another weapon or weapon system we have been testing is ready to go.

Well, if they intended to keep it secret, they surely fucked up.

Well, if they intended to keep it secret, they surely fucked up.

And it most likely isnt ready to go if the thing went off like that in full view..

Probably a missile fired from a submarine. FOX News reporting that it is still a mystery.

Relax guys.

I'm just firing off a few bottle rockets to commemorate itchy pants day.

They're made out of Folger's cans and stuffed with gun powder and toilette paper to give 'em a little distance. That's what you are seeing right now.

EDIT.

Um. If one of them lands on shore, could you get somebody to crack it open for me? I can't seem to find my wristwatch.
