Vandenberg Space Force Base will have a public meeting this Friday, Feb. 20, from 4-6 PM to discuss sonic booms from rocket launches. There have been complaints from Lompoc to as far away as Ojai and Oxnard about the house shaking booms.
The booms are mostly from Space X launches and may grow to 10 per month.
