Even though it was cloudy, I got some views of it through the gaps...was very bright. Trajectory was going a lot farther east than other launches I’v seen.

Trajectory was going a lot farther east than other launches Iv seen. Possibly Geo-sync orbit?
Many of our satellites are park out there to monitor a certain area. They have no need to cover the entire earth and also at that altitude there would be no junk to hit it, just meteorites and Chinese ASATs.
