"If this was truly a ballistic missile, wouldn't it show up on the
radars of every air-traffic control tower and weather doppler for
hundreds of miles around?"...

...Unless of course the guv-ment 'urged' the radar folks to ignore some
radar data. Maybe it was an accidental launch that would embarrass the
powers in charge?...or a private company that decided to launch their
Helium3 excavator to the moon without guv-ment approval?...

Just a couple more thoughts to add to the fire...

Hi List,

If this was truly a ballistic missile, wouldn't it show up on the
radars of every air-traffic control tower and weather doppler for
hundreds of miles around? It doesn't seem like an epic investigation
to reconcile the known air-traffic in the area at the time and any
radar signatures that were detected. A plane and a missile would have
very different flight paths, so it should be relatively easy (for
qualified persons) to determine what it is.

Let's pretend this contrail was a bolide trail instead. Where is the
nearest doppler station?

Best regards,

MikeG
