Any meteorologist that can help me figure out what the heck this line is? - eviltoast

Last night at about 6:15 pm, I noticed this super bright pink line in the sky. It was almost exactly N<->S. I’m in the Space Coast, Florida if that helps. I’ve never seen plane contrails look like this. Weird thing is that it almost looked like if the area in the center of the line was ionized, plasma-like. Unfortunately the camera didn’t pick up how vivid the line was. In another picture it almost seems like the line makes a 90 degree turn due east at the northern tip of it.

I thought maybe a meteor since there was that Taurid shower a few days but I don’t know if meteors fall N to S and if they ionize clouds like that. I don’t know if that actually is even ionization. We also have a lot of aerospace research companies here so who knows if it could be that?

Hoping someone can chime in with what it might be.

    Normally, i would assume both theories are jokes

    But considering that the comment used “/s” to indicate ths first theory being a joke, but not for the second one, does that mean that a crack in time is more likely than chemtrails?

      You know those “The earth isn’t flat, its obviously a [Insert Shape Here]” jokes?

      This is like that.

      Now the joke is ruined.

      🥲

      You shall perish in the crack in space-time continuum.

      Adava Kedavera!
