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.

'Meteor' contrail appears
VAFB knew something habbenin in advance.
Was this a D.E.W. Satellite kill over California?
Is it normal for meteor contrails to persist for so long?
