SpaceX Globalstar FM15 Satellite Launch - Smoke Ring over Missouri

- Yet another SpaceX satellite put on a show above Missouri last night around 1:15 a.m. CDT. As the satellite passed over Missouri it relit its engine and blew off some sort of smoke ring and large gas cloud. My meteor cameras recorded the event. The video shows what they recorded. The satellite was, I believe, the Globalstar FM15 which was launched about an hour or so earlier in the evening.

We were on the Mississippi river by lock and dam 21and we saw it, the smoke Ring was huge.
Incredible, I always miss things like this. Glad I found this channel as I live in Bethany, MO.
thats super cool Dan thanks!
We saw it in Southern California Saturday night approx 11:30pm.
WOW!
So cool! Were you able to spot a different object on the same approximate path a few minutes earlier/later? They apparently deployed a secret payload shortly after launch, which people are trying to find!
Regarding the smoke plume you saw: I matched up the times on your cameras with the launch timeline, and it seems very likely that the third burn of Stage 2 was underway at that point. It was an inclination change burn, which explains why the plume is pointing sideways. The rocket is essentially making a slight right turn in space to put the satellite in the correct orbit!
Yes. I just went back through my video. I'm posting another video here shortly showing an object that passed over my location about 5 minutes before that which is shown in this video. The object even appeared to be leaving a faint trail of luminous gas. I'll post the link to the new video once I get it processed and uploaded. It's very faint but visible. To me it appears that the object was in the exact same orbit at the main body.

Awesome, man! I seen this on the ground around 1:15 am in Texas
Fantastic video, you do a better job than are local news people.
