MYSTERY LAUNCH

This morning I have been hearing reports of a mystery missile launch last night off of the southern California Coast. One account of the launch is posted at:
 
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2010/11/09/national/main7036716.shtml

Missile launches off of the southern California coast are not really that unusual. They have happened before from San Nicolas Island and from ships and submarines at sea.

As a matter of fact, the waters off of southern California contain an established range for testing and evaluating missiles, weapons systems, and so on.
