Case 20-030: looking for a smoke trail.

Is the video submitted for Case 20-030 an atmosphere-skimming fireball? If it is, we could reasonably expect to see a smoke trail. The great daylight fireball of 1972 left a smoke trail hundreds of miles long that lingered in the air for several minutes.

However, this video was shot on a moonless night, and it might be hard to see a smoke trail. This video explains how we went looking a sign of it. Nothing conclusive was found.
