I am posting this because I live on Whidbey Island Washington, a large island in the PNW about 30 miles north of Seattle. On Sunday I got an email from a friend who lives on the island that went on and on about some "weather hound" whose camera had picked up what appears to be some strange activity in the sky over Whidbey. Now, you have to understand that there is a huge Naval Air Station at the top of the Island, and the sky is often filled with aircraft like Posideons and Growlers - in fact the jet jocks in the Growlers practice night time carrier landings by doing touch-n-go's from a little airfield just outside Coupeville. So ... the sights and sounds of aircraft is nothing new on the Island.
But ... according to what this weather guy claims to have photographed coming from Whidbey - this doesn't appear to be an aircraft:
From what is publicly known, there are no rocket operations of any kind in the region. However, the “closest thing to something like that would be the Ohio class nuclear ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs) based not too far away at Bangor Trident Base/Naval Submarine Base Bangor.”
Hmmm .....
Of course, the Navy denies everything.
