NARRATIVE

On the evening of 4/12/23, I was shooting stock night footage of Seattle for my drone company. I had not looked over all the full resolution videos on my PC until last night, 4/16.
Upon watching one of the videos, I saw what looked like a rocket powered aircraft or missile in the sky above Seattle. I played the video back multiple times and could not rule it as lens flare since the light source in the video had a definitive tail that did not change direction as the camera panned the cityscape. I reviewed the evening flight traffic using https://www.flightradar24.com/   at the specific time I was filming, which the plane traffic matched my clip, but zero westbound flights are in view on the map.
In the attached video clip, the object enters frame from the left (east) moving right (west) at a high rate of speed. The aircraft traveling towards the camera are going north, at approximate speeds of 300+ mph, per flightradar24 records of those flights at those locations.
If you feel this clip is worth investigating, I have a higher quality original video directly from the camera that has not been compressed for upload.
