Red blob, went to a dot, then disappeared

I saw a red blob to the right and below venus as viewed from SE Los Angeles county. It had no distinctive shape. It changed to a dot after about a minute and a half, then disappeared about 15 seconds later. Is there a posibility that it was just a rocket going out of the atmosphere?
