Nothing in their company page. Test launch of the Falcon Heavy maybe?

Edit: actually, that looks like a really low trajectory. Where’s that headed?

Wait. Who launched that? It's launched like a ballistic missile, not into space.

Definitely a rocket with side-mounted boosters. Not a missile.

That's just what happens when you launch one at a shallow angle like that. It's going fast but it's still deep in the atmosphere. That's the stuff people use to see all through the cold war when each side was testing ballistic missiles all the time.

It eventually will turn into a kind of wedge shape.

I'm not going to lie, while the kids were going crazy talking about how cool it is I thought we were bringing freedom to Lil Kim and started getting scared what caused it

I could tell that it was Vandenburg though just because of the general direction

Wow that is beautiful. You never get to see all that when it’s launched over the ocean.

Now... how in the HELL did they get clearance to launch that over CONUS?? The government is putting a lot of faith in them.

He’s actually miles ahead of NASA. It pains me to say that, because I indirectly work for them, but... NASA is just about useless for human flight at this point. Elon is inches away.
