Initial data
A smoke ring flew out of a foggy travel light in Magnolia, Arkansas, on October 30, 2023.
At 19:54 central time, I noticed a strange foggy light moving across the night sky, and something prompted me to record it. As soon as I did that, he pulled out a smoke ring in front of him!
I checked the Starlink launch schedule and, of course, about an hour and a half before that, there was one from Cape Canaveral, Florida. Is that what I see here? In the video, I'm looking west, so it's a long way from Florida. If this is a Starlink, then what is the explanation for the smoke ring?
(Also sorry for the poor quality. This was shot on an iPhone 12 Pro with 2x zoom. I hope you see all this well enough. It was wild!)

Smoke Ring emitted from foggy traveling light in Magnolia, AR on Oct 30, 2023
I spotted a weird foggy light moving across the night sky at 7:54 pm central time and something told me to record it. As soon as I did, it pushed a smoke ring in front of itself! I checked the Starlink launch schedule and sure enough, there was one from Cape Canaveral, FL about an hour and a half before this. Is that what I’m seeing here? I’m looking west in the video so that’s a long ways from Florida. If it is Starlink, what is the explanation behind the smoke ring? (Also, sorry for the low quality. It was shot on an iPhone 12 Pro using 2x zoom. I hope you all can see it well enough. It was wild!)
Hypotheses
Booster, the rocket and tracks
For UFOs often take stages of rockets, parts of space ships burning in the atmosphere, the launches of various missile technology for military purposes, etc., and traces from them. They attract attention mostly in the dark, but in the day time have a greater aura of mystery.
Formation of the track of the launch vehicle occurs in the tropopause (the layer between the troposphere and stratosphere), which sharply reduced the vertical temperature gradient. The emergence of the so-called "jellyfish" influenced by water vapor, which are subject to enhanced condensation.
Investigation
This is a rocket launch, and the ring is most likely hot gases that flew out due to the separation of the rocket stage.
