Incoming!!

Backing out of my driveway this morning readying myself for the daily commute to work, I spied something awfully bright in the pre-dawn sky.
Target contrails visible from a launch in New Mexico.
A training exercise in New Mexico was the source. A target was launched from Fort Wingate near Gallup, NM (travelling up & to the right in the photo) only to be intercepted by a Patriot Advanced Capability 3 missile. Very cool way to start off the day.
