To be fair the military should issue a statement before launching near a city to clarify it has no payload other than chemtrails.

Does Vandenburg just not do night launches?

I can think of a few reasons why they would only do day launches, mostly do to them only doing military launches.

I just feel that even retarded Floridians would have recognized what this was.

If millions of people see it then of course some of them are going to go to Twitter. What do you expect? For fuck's sake, even if 1% has that reaction that's still a ton of people.

What's the reasonable response in this case, and why is it reasonable to expect literally everyone to follow it?

I'm not even sure if Vandenburg launches rockets. This one in the video was SpaceX renting space from the USAF.

Well in all honestly, that is a pretty logical reaction.

Modern day twitter is basically a giant news system, so if you see something in the sky, you can be sure there are people tweeting about it with theories and maybe even explanations. Hell even government agencies are now using twitter to push alerts and notifications.

that's not a normal rocket launch

the exhaust on that rocket is whispy like cirrus clouds

Part of why it looks so unusual for a rocket launch is all of the particles the atmosphere has been seeded with from chemtrailing.

You know Twitter is a constant source of up-to-date information, right OP? While that fucked platform may be a shitshow otherwise, it's not like they're off base going there to try and find more real-time info. But it also doesn't help that they sound like fucking idiots with this Valley Girl-type gawking.

LA fag here

They launch rockets from Vandenberg Air Force Base all the time. But we never see them. Probably because the air is usually so full of smog

The big reason, everyone saw this launch for tens of miles away was because

1.) Recent Santa Ana winds cleared the smog and clouds from the air (the same dry desert winds causing the recent wild fires)

2.) It was about 50 degrees F for much of the coastal cities that night and was probably cooler inland towards the valleys, at higher altitudes above the launch site was likely a freezing cold airmass and when the rocket flew through it ice crystals formed.

Atmospheric ice crystals tend to be more vivid and stand out moreso than other cloud types, especially in such a clear sky and in a state where the average person has probably never even seen snow in their entire lives.
