The Q launch post is from a weather station skycam, it’s taking individual pics, AFAICT about every several minutes, so there’s no lapse in it, I think it was a serendipitous frame catch.

The weathercam operator reported the image was a 20 second exposure

Greg Johnson of Skunk Bay Weather was looking through the pictures snapped by a weather camera on the Kitsap Peninsula when he spotted a photo with a mysterious object. The picture - snapped at 3:56 a.m. Sunday by a high-quality, 20-second exposure camera - shows a bright orange streak in the early morning sky over Whidbey Island.
