random pics that YOU have taken.......

Wow! Thanks for the info. The last shot kinda looks like the con trail left in the early morning missile test left in the sky a few weeks back here in CA(SoCal launch). Saw it in the sky in northern CA just before they pushed the big red button and detonated it, looked cool. However, the local radio station was reporting countless calls from the public claiming everything from UFO's to the end of times from a Chinese Nuc.

Seriously?!? It's amazing how the general public can be uneducated at times. But yet they can tell you every detail about the latest reality based TV show. Aerojet had an engine test many years ago that they advised the public for weeks on end, could have been a month or two, can't recall. Radio spots, TV spots on the news, newspaper articles and freeway signboards, they did everything possible to inform the community. When they torched it off , my rearview mirror was vibrating and I was miles away from the facility. It was cool to see the exhaust plume rise up into the atmosphere, 15-20K by the time it was done and continued to rise.

You would have thought the world was ending by the way some were running around like headless chickens.

Forgot the pic
