I was wondering if NASA launched something even checked the news and have not seen anything yet,,,

What time did it happen? I must have been looking the wrong way. I saw the red ball of light that I couldn't explain (related to fireworks??) but did not see that plume. And it was oriented in the south?

From where we were it was due south, perhaps slightly south east, and stretched 40-70 degrees above the horizon.
