Meteor or ?
 
I was out on my Lanai last night in Village of Newell a few minutes after midnight (early Labor Day) when I saw a fireball object pass across sky. Stayed at same altitude in sky as it moved from west to east. You can zoom in on video and see what looks like a fire trail. Really neat yet not sure what it was. Any thoughts?

According to Google News, that was probably the SpaceX capsule returning with the 4 astronauts from the ISS space station.

There was a SpaceX launch last night. Not sure what time it was.

You are right. The launch occurred an hour or so before midnight, the capsule returned at approximately 12:17 am.
