You'd better look up to the sky because this afternoon a rocket will rise over southern California, and as it has been noticed in the many times in the past, a bright light is visible from the Baja California region. So do not panic or make any sudden assumptions, it's the Delta IV Heavy rocket.

This Tuesday, December 18, the Delta IV rocket will be launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Santa Bárbara. Which is very likely to offer us a light show in the sky, this takes a reconnaissance satellite to orbit.

The launch of United Launch Alliance is the only one that still stands, since SpaceX, Blue Origin and Arianespace have been postponed.

At 5:57 am the Delta IV rocket will be launched, depending on the cloud cover this could be visible in most of the region at night, the Vandenberg Air Force Base stated.

Elon Musk's SpaceX rocket launch was postponed to Wednesday, December 19, which will take a GPS satellite to space from Cape Canaveral in Florida.

We will have to stay vigilant in the evening, since we can find a bright light in the sky.
