Thought at first I captured a shooting star, but realized they do not move up the sky.

Just enjoying some nighttime photography when I captured an oval shaped, reddish glowing object with a glowing white trail moving upward at a high rate of speed. There was no sound. If I didn't have the photo I wouldn't believe it either. The photo I provide is original and unedited.
