ICBM aka MINUTEMAN III
rocket launching over Hollywood 9/19/02 was watching TV when, out of the corner of my eye, I saw the Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile rising above the horizon. I grabbed my Canon G2 and dashed to the balcony. The view is from the hills of Silverlake looking west towards Hollywood. Unfortunately my tripod was in the car :/
