Attachments : Re: Oct 2 1999 Missile Defense test pix From Ace Baker Hello all -This may be of some value, its a cool visual anyway. Ive found a video shot by my father-in-law. Oct 2, 1999. Screen cap attached. Southern California. Western Sky, just after sunset. We all saw this and wondered what it was. I remember the local news showed it, and said it was a successful missile defense test, or words to that effect.Found this photographer page, he says it was a rocket intercepting another rocket, which I believe is how the media reported it. www.dosgatos.com/au/…, heres CNN.www.cnn.com/US/9910/… we believe its a missile hitting another missile? Maybe. I think it would be far more feasible to intercept missiles with something that moves at the speed of light. -a
