Details:
On 7 Nov 23 ~11:42PM, I captured (barely) the venting of SpaceX's Falcon 9 as it entered the ionosphere (spaceflightnow.com/2023/11/07/live-coverage-spacex-to-lau...). In 30 seconds, the fuel venting (at extreme right) became quickly ionized and the red spherical glow lasted for a brief 2 minutes.
Exposures of 30s at iso 800 were 30 seconds apart with a GoPro10. Bortle 4 skies with red and green airglow..
