1) I'm still not sure what the object is, jet or missile or for that matter, something else. What I can tell you is that the animation of frame 18 only shows the path the plume drifted and not anything in flight. The 30-45 seconds of video I captured in which I could see the object (the portion of the video showing the glow/flame of the object at its pinnacle) occurred 8-10 minutes prior to the animated images of frame 18 (if the time stamps are accurate). I have no way of telling if those time stamps are accurate since the raw video has no real-time time stamp associated with it. I can only go by an estimated time based on the time we launched out of John Wayne airport and the approximate time of our weather shot. My guess is that the time stamps are relatively close to the accurate time. However, what you are seeing in those images is the plume drifting and not anything in flight.2) My estimation is that the satellite image showing a plume forming and drifting to the south/southeast is in the same relative area as the plume I shot. Again, I'm no expert, it's simply my opinion.
The satellite image had its own time verification:
