    Hi Sam,
    Just in case anyone is still looking:
    
    http://194.224.72.3:8080/a3noticias/data/1/7/omnfk5925_7.wmv
    
    My no-nothing opinion:
    a) Cloud coloring indicates sun below horizon in direction
    of object (sunlit), making trail backlit and luminous.
    b) Assuming real time video speed, pass behind clouds looks
    about the same as would be expected from a high altitude
    multi-engine aircraft (too slow for sat re-entry, way too
    slow for meteor).
    
    Robin
