Something Strange in the Western Skies

Something strange was seen in the skies last night. From Southern California and Arizona, curious onlookers, including the crew of a Phoenix area news chopper watched a eerily dazzling display in the sky on Friday, December 22, 2017.

Well, relax everybody, it wasn’t aliens….. this time.

We were witnessing a rocket launch from Vandenberg Air Force base north of Santa Barbara, California.

SpaceX flawlessly launched its Falcon 9 rocket,which carried 10 satellites from Iridium Communications into low-Earth orbit.
