Yeah, just a nice sunset contrail. I always think of this shuttle launch picture whenever a sunset/sunrise contrail is reported as a missile launch.

Now that's a pic of something thats going somewhere fast. Note how only a small part is yellow/oragne. It quickly climbs through that part of the atmosphere. The rest is either in earth's shadow or reflecting bright sunlight.
