Just videoed my first UFO
MagnaProp:
Got this on video tonight. I'm guessing its a rocket of some kind. Never see them around here so I'm not sure what's up. Even stranger to see two pieces of it. A bunch of cars were parked along the freeway which is never the case. I'm guessing they saw what I saw and stopped for pictures.

Hi MagnaProp. I don't know one way or the other, but the news is currently reporting that
it was a SpaceX Rocket launch.

Identification confirmed.
This is no longer a UFO.
The ‘triangle’ shape is the Falcon 9 rocket, and its boosters heading to the two ships in the
landing zones.
These are controlled landings. Both booster rockets are recovered and refueled.
(or repaired, recycled, or sometimes they are lost)
The launch originated from a leased area of Vandenberg AFB,
They just took 10 Irridium-powered spacecom cubesats into orbit.
Over the next few weeks these will fall into formation and establish a
planetary orbital communications network so the air force spacecraft
can communicate no matter which side of the planet they are on.
They are basically eliminating the problem of ‘going dark’.
MagnaProp:
Thanks for the info Void and smOky2. Glad to know it was one of ours. It was quite something to see. This video doesn't really do it justice due to the quality.
I'm curious if the CHP keeps track of how many accidents there were that night. Looked like those stopped on the side of the freeway were a mix of picture takers and those that rear ended the cars in front of them while most likely picture taking.
Seemed like a strange trajectory as it appeared to travel almost horizontally to the left instead of up which I'm sure added to peoples reactions.
Void:
Hi MagnaProp. Yes, it seems pretty negligent if this SpaceX rocket launch wasn't
announced all over the news well before hand in Southern California warning people
of the planned SpaceX rocket launch, and telling people not to be surprised or alarmed if they
saw the weird looking light and contrails streaking across the sky. It wouldn't surprise me at all if there
was a higher than normal number of accidents during the time that rocket streaked across the
Southern California sky. It seems it should go without saying that something like that needs to be
announced in the news for several days before hand. It is certainly not something the average
person might recognize. :)
All the best...
