This is how Julien Solomita captioned the following video after he posted it to his YouTube page with the title “MASSIVE BLUE UFO OVER LOS ANGELES 11-7-15 [HD]”:
Hey guys, so we were just randomly up on the target parking structure shooting some night footage, timelapses etc. for the vlog and as we were literally walking back to the car Jason pointed out this ufo that wasn’t anything but a suspicious orange looking light moving fast..I was able to begin recording right then and there, and as you can see in the video, it turns into something that releases some sort of giant blue light in a circular haze.. It was easily the craziest thing I’ve witnessed. I rushed home to upload this..comment below what you think or have heard it might be..skip to 1:19 to see to when the UFO releases a giant light.
Here’s the video itself:
Guess what? This is crazy and really, really hard to believe (we know) but it … WASN’T an “Unidentified Flying Object” (UFO)!
Rather, it was identified, by the United States Navy. Turns out, they were testing a Trident submarine-launched ballistic missile off the coast of California — right around their Pacific Missile Range (near Point Mugu).
Perhaps the people in the video above should take note of this map?
It’s the U.S. military’s operating areas on the West Coast.
Here’s Naval Base Ventura County’s official statement — via the Third Fleet’s Cmdr. Ryan Perry:
“Navy Strategic Systems Programs conducted scheduled Trident II (D5) missile test flight at sea from USS Kentucky, an Ohio Class SSBN, in the Pacific Test Range off the coast of Southern California. The tests were part of a scheduled, ongoing system evaluation test. Launches are conducted on a frequent, recurring basis to ensure the continued reliability of the system. Each test activity provides valuable information about our systems, thus contributing to assurance in our capabilities.
The missile was not armed. Strategic Systems Programs does not routinely announce missile testing. Information regarding the test launch of Trident II (D5) missiles is classified before the launch.”
Bubbles burst. Hopes dashed. The U.S. Navy probably loves all of it.
Oh, and if you’re still looking for aliens out there on the coast or in the sky or through the amateur telescope you have set up in your living room? Keep hammering.
