Details:
MYSTERIOUS LIGHT SEEN IN SKIES ACROSS NORTHERN CALIFORNIA: I was setting up to photograph a Delta IV Heavy rocket launch from Vandenberg AFB which was scrubbed less than 10 minutes before takeoff. There was talk about the buildup of hydrogen around the base of the rocket. At about 5:36 this meteor contrail appeared.Although I didn't see a fireball. I was looking at my iphone at the time. Trying to see is the rocket launch was going to be a go!
